    Oh Super Sweet 90's Inserts.... #3

    For anyone with experience grading 1998 Crusades, can you share some insights into how PSA deals with small surface issues? Picked up several raw cards for my Mets collections recently, and noticed that one of the greens and a red have small isolated scratches/scuffs. Thanks!

    A Career Ended By A Common Virus

    Great article! One minor (non-medical) piece of nitpicking: Charlie Kerfeld was not a starter for the 1986 Astros. He appeared in 61 games that year, all in relief.

    Topps Vault "slick stock proof" - what's the story?

    I'll start by noting that I don't have any meaningful info on these. That being said, I do know that six or seven years ago, Topps sold a run of 1971 "slick" baseball high numbers. I collect "vintage" Mets and was fortunate enough to pick up the Gary Gentry, which I wrote about here a few years...
