BGS grading

Just received word that some cards I sent in to BGS are done, including a couple NPNs.

The expensive Audrey Hepburn card graded a disappointing 7.0 due to a low surface grade. I didn't notice anything, but apparently they did.

I was happy with a grade for a card that my wife pulled. A 2008 Topps Heritage Black Refractor (#/59) Jacoby Ellsbury received a 9.5! A $120 card just got a lot better.

Here are all the grades...

2007 UD Masterpieces Stroke of Genius Signatures Printing Plates Black
Ken Griffey Jr.
9.0

2007 Americana Hollywood Legends Material Super Stars *
Steve McQueen Jacket/25
9.0

2007 Americana Hollywood Legends Material Super Stars *
Audrey Hepburn Dress/25
7.0

2008 Topps Heritage Chrome Refractors Black
Jacoby Ellsbury
9.5

1992 Pro Line Profiles Autographs
Roger Staubach RET
9.0

1962 Topps
Mickey Mantle IA
3.5

9.0 and 7.0 isn't bad for free...

Bummer on the Hepburn getting a 7, but its still a sweet card! Man I've been so busy at work- had a coworker take a maternity leave so the last couple months I've had about double the work. I will start updating tcnpns.blogspot.com again in a couple weeks with some scans but all I have received from UD is a Yankee Stadium Legacy Goose Gossage #4388. I've heard from people who have received some pretty nice cards, but none of their luck has rubbed off on me.
