I bought them at shops back in the late 80s.

Much more eye appealing than the new stuff. Congrats on the grades.

Sweet Grades

VERY NICE! Congratulations.

I have to ask.......are they PC or for re-sale?

if for PC, what made you go PSA over SGC/BVG?

I love the look of the Ruth. Great cards!

They are PC for now, but I have slabbed them for future sale potential.

As for why PSA, that is a harder question. I don't have a lot of experience with graded cards, but everything I've had has been PSA (with the exception of one SGC). I like the aesthetics of the clear holder and the way that they stack. Not to mention that I was looking at some auction ctalogues and almost all of the vintage for sale was PSA.

What would you have done with these?

Good call, PSA sells better for vintage.
