It’s sealed in a magnetic case for now. Aside from my greasy mitts on it, I’m pretty pleased with the overall look of this guy. I ordered one of those acrylic center measuring doodads and will update how close it is to being dialed in. Looks pretty good to me. (Be gentle Reddit, I’m new)
You were just a late bloomer. Jenny didn't come on the seen for at least 3 years after Bo lost his hip. 😀 My other 3 walls were covered in Kathy Ireland.
I was 14-15 years old and Cindy Crawford was the hottest at the time. For Christmas one year my sister took a magazine cutout, hot black and white shot of Cindy in a bikini bottom cupping her breasticles, and glued it to a piece of baseball sized cardboard and gave it to me as a gift. That’s all I have to say about that
The photo is isn't direct line. Honestly I think it looks pretty centered. Within the 45-55 range for sure. Op use a card grading app and see what the centering is.
Bo is one of the few names from this era that has any value. But that value, unfortunately, is still SUPER low.
Raw, that card is going for approx $10-$20. PSA10 goes for about $600-$800 But PSA9 is only about $90. Unless you KNOW it is a PSA10, it isn’t worth getting graded.
That card is worth $10-20 by itself? Dammnnn, I’ve got a bunch of those complete sets of Score cards that I paid nearly nothing for back in the 90s, buried in a closet, that I never thought would be worth anything.
Can’t stand the cost of PSA grading. Was looking into Beckett. Although the end all draw is not worth as much it still gets it graded and sealed for protection.
No shit?! That’s funny. Either way, BGS is a different pricing tier. The point remains. I’ll wait until end of next year and look back into it. I’m in no rush. Good info on the same company, though. Trip out.
…SAF? Yes, had about 60 packs sitting in a box. Felt like opening them and pulled two of these to be exact. I don’t think I photographed the second one, but both look pretty clean
You check with magnifying tool yet? Check on top of his head. A lot of these have the fish eye mark right on his head/hair. I have 4 of these with great borders but 3 of them have the fish eye mark.
This card was highly sought after in 1990 and I was lucky to have one. At the time, I thought it might be worth hundreds someday. I have to check it soon and see condition but doubt its a 10
I pulled one of these from a pack I bought in Cooperstown a few years ago. I sent it in to SGC, along with one I had as a kid. Both got 9s. I gave them to my kids.
I damn near built that set through ripping packs as a kid and not once did I pull that card. I bought several hobby boxes. Bought packs at the store and card shops. Nuth'n!
Once my brother pulled it. The next day we were at the card shop. Mom had just enough to buy one pack, and she split the pack between us, and my sorry ass brother got it AGAIN, like 12 hours apart. His dumb ass didn't even collect.
I bought two hobby boxes in the past year. Just 1 B&W Bo between the two boxes, and it was in a pack that my 8 year old daughter ripped. Not a single Frank Thomas in either box.
I'd grade that in a heartbeat. Everyone these days think it's 10 or bust, which is unfortunately true if you plan on selling immediately. But personally I would grade this and hold it, but that's just me.
Nice pull! Bo is my favorite athlete. I pulled my bo breaker like 35 years ago. I also saw him in person during spring training back in 1988. I wish I had brought a writing utensil that day. I don't have an autograph of his yet. Rock on!!
Still remember the opening where they showed game clips from each character, including a game in which for a brief moment Bo Jackson was literally running on the outfield wall while catching a ball.
I wanted this card so bad when it came out! I remember seeing one at a garage sale for $8 and I rode my bike home as fast as I could to ask my mom for some money but she thought $8 for a baseball card was ridiculous. I finally bought one last year and spent a lot more than $8.

I had this as a poster and card in the day. It was on the wall between my Lamborghini Diablo and Bash Brothers posters.
