Nope, I'd never forget about these! But, the last time I looked in this particular box was when you, me, John Mann & Zenergizer had a North East Wacky Gathering at Andy's (Ditch Master's) house! (over a decade ago?)
Correct! Here's the odd bit of info ~ The Blue OPC box had OPC 4th Series cards with red wrappers and the purple OPC box had OPC 4th Series cards with blue wrappers (typical OPC logic!)
While these are not new to my collection, I recently "re-discovered" them as I was looking for another item!
My "key" Wackys. The top row speaks for itself. The 1st series are all white backs and the Spit and Spill has the Spic and Span logo on top. The bottom row are all Black Ludlow backs! I'm think of sending these off to PSA soon...
Yes, I actually just noticed that the Dopey Whip is borderless. Oh well.Also, why are screw downs bad for cards over time? They are basically the same material as penny sleeves, top loaders and card saver type holders....

Very excited about this pickup....exceptional centering, tough to find on this title....
Regular (non-glossy) tan back sticker stock never looks that white. Not sure what the proof is printed on....

Wow! That's incredible! A rarity among the rare. Nice score, Dave!
Beautifully centered Dave! Congrats. Did you make that 8, or pick it up already graded?
Just back from PSA...only the second PSA 9 with no 10! Some of these 2nd tans are super tough!Thanks to Kook for trading it to me!(Image removed from quote.)
VERY NICE Brian!!! Sharp stuff there. Looking at these, I need to start up on my 16th again. Money has been an issue, so at $100 plus for a 9 make these just out of my reach for now. I'm trying to have a 9+ set. I have 1 (10) so far. How close are you? I know you have been working on this set for a while.Thanks for the peak.JimThanks Jim. I currently have everything from the 16th graded 7 or higher except for the puzzle. I have the puzzle , I personally don't have a desire to get it graded. Of the 30 stickers 4 have qualifiers - 3 ST and 1 OC - that I will look to upgrade over time.
Excellent! Whatever your budget, self-subbing is so much more fun than buying!
I agree 100% Dave. I sent in my first 15 from the 16th Series and was like "a kid in a candy store" when they came back. Nine 9's, five 8's, and one 7. All of them I had picked up over the years on e-Bay or at the Allentown show. It's also kind of an affirmation that I still have a fairly discerning eye.
The toughest 16th in PSA 9 by far is Floral. I lucked out that the one in my raw set was well-centered and got a 9. There are only two (with one 10). I'm still only at about 50-60% though, around half my set didn't cut it on centering.
My sharp cornered Floral is off to the left.
