Selling Tips
Due to the vintage nature and mid-to-lower condition grade, selling raw to a vintage collector or grading only if submitting a bulk order is recommended. Use clear photos outside of the page binder, highlight the Al Kaline Hall of Fame connection in keywords, and ship securely in a penny sleeve, top loader, and team bag inside a bubble mailer.
