I have owned this card once before, my example was a BVG 6 though, and nowhere near this nice. Instantly vaults up to one of my favorites.

Nice card Danny. I have looked into the Winston-Salem NC players but they always sell really high when they come up. They don't come up for sale much either. I assume the Roanoke ones aren't any different. Good luck finding the rest of them.

These don't come up often at all! I hope to possibly complete this in the next 5 years.

A bit off topic, but I have a 1954 Bowman set I am looking to move. Have Paschal not Williams. Mid grade set.

Big win for my Zimmer PC. 1962 Post uncut cereal box back panel.

Very cool item!

If you decided to cut out the Zimmer and have it graded, would they accept it and add "hand cut" to the label? Or would it come back as "altered" because a fresh cut on an old card raises red flags for being trimmed?

Don't know, since I don't grade, maybe someone else will know. I certainly am not going to cut it.

I believe those get a hand cut put on the label when graded by PSA. It does not matter if the cut looks old or new. I am no expert on Post cards but I have seen the box bottom cards get the "hand cut" designation. There are some discussions over on the CU forum on cutting them. I think some guys are considered good at it and others send them stuff to be cut as well.
