1968 Baseball Marbles, Creative Creations
These clear plastic 3/4" marbles contained paper inserts with the
player's portrait on front and facsimile autograph on back. Issued in collectible blister packs with 20 marbles. The blister packs measure 9-3/4" x 10-1/2". The marbles were sealed on front; the pack’s back featured a design with around 60 facsimile signatures. 
The package mentioned 24 series of 20 marbles each (480 total)
but only 120 different marbles were actually created. 
One of the more interesting collectibles from the late 1960's, they are
still sought after by both team & player collectors.

Grade/Condition Centering, corner wear, photo clarity, edges, creases, print flaws ... all combine to determine a card's condition or grade. Along with rarity/scarcity it is the major factor in a card's value.
Graded Card As values increased the condition of cards and the determination of fakes and alterations became increasingly more important. Various companies became "graders" of your cards. For a fee they would grade your card (usually on a 1 to 10 scale) and then placed in a sealed plastic holder with labelling of the vital information.
From past experiences, most people are NOT HAPPY with the grades they receive. To keep values up, graders can be extremely picky. Things you don't see, they do so don't be surprized when the NEAR MINT card you send in ends up with an EX or EX/MINT grade.
There are TOO many grading companies - if you do, do choose carefully. PSA / SGC / GAI / BGS are some of the many companies. It is good to know that getting a card graded by a company that people do not recognize or respect will usually just cost you time and money and not help you in any way.
