got a great card in the mail.....what the heck do I do with it?
Just got a Heritage Stamps of America's great starts
Prado/Heyward/McCann.
Love the card...if you can call it a "card"
It is about 5" x 8" very odd size.
What are you doing with yours and how are you displaying it? Is there a holder for these?
Perhaps Beckett will put it in a case?

I've seen them and am in the market for a Phillies one. I was just at a card show today and noticed many large top loaders for sale at all different sizes.

They do have top loaders for these. Your local shop or card show should have them.

As long as a card is not larger than a magazine, it can be slabbed by BGS.

Thanks!
Perhaps I will bring the card down to Dallas on the 2nd of July for the open house.

Yea they will put it in an 8x10 slab... looks kinda clunky.

yep...that would be a very large slab for this item. that said it needs to be protected.
(would only take one footstep from one of my kids to put a kink in my collection!)
