Just pulled this Max Clark 1/1 out of Bowman Chrome



Probably will hold and see what he can do in the bigs!

Will PSA grade bat barrel cards? They are pretty thick. Thanks.

I'm sure they will but you will probably get massacred on the grade.

My scanner doesn't do this card justice, plus scratches on the case...

If you take it out of the case it looks gradable for sure, but I don't know how thick PSA holders can go. I believe the card is 190 pt.

I'm just saying PSA massacres thick cards especially die-cut ones.

Nothing crazy but picked these up at a flea market for $14. Thought it was a pretty good deal. Cal is a refractor, Pujols is the blue sapphire, Acuna scope, and top 100 is mini Diamond /150

Don't usually post my Goldschmidt inserts, or Dbacks prospect refractors, or my veteran Cosmic nucleus refractors, or lottery ticket Bowman autos in this thread, but couldn't resist posting today's pickup from out in the wild.

Scarce HOFer with a cool nickname

Don’t see many Yankees cards with that pinstripe hat

Thanks! I'm still deciding if I'll grade it or not. I'm not selling it. I'm not very old and have major health issues (cancer). I'm very fortunate that I have a loving family, a 15 year old son, and a good job / insurance. Baseball and card collecting keep my mind off all the issues. I hope one day my son will cherish my collection and keep it, but if not, my family needs to be educated on what my collection is worth so they don't just list "Joey Votto cards (and others)" on Facebook Marketplace and get totally ripped off. Education is key! It's a issue we will all deal with one day, and I think it's already been discussed in another thread so I won't ramble on. If I do get it graded, I'll let everyone know what it comes back as. Thanks again for the compliment.

What a beaut. Could even just get it slabbed as authentic.

Why? How many fake Museum Collection cards have you seen floating around?

....okay, so sorry to have crossed thine boundary. Just an option of slabbing with it without a glaring 'PSA 6' label, depending on how it would grade. I will think better next time.

That’s the point. You get a modern card that’s not commonly (if ever) faked graded as “Authentic” everyone knows you’re just trying to hide the less desirable grade it would get which would make it rather pointless and a waste of money.

I agree with this. Slabbing authentic just because an ultra modern card wouldn't gem would steer me away from said card, assuming there's some terrible issue I can't see through the slab. Its a silly game imo.

Honest question - can anyone cite the grading language that accounts for a bat barrel and the fact the wood grain is not as smooth as a regular card?

Cards like this - how do they determine surface?

I'd assume they look at the card itself and not the bat piece. Same goes for any relic (jersey, bat, pants, etc.)
