Cut properly they should have a frame around the image.

Ive always liked them.

The 1935's (series 1) has ONLY a signed name, the 1936 (series 3) has the name and team typed along with a signature.

This scan isn't mine, but it appears that at least SGC will grade them.

I've been working on these sets off and on for years. Very difficult to find with full frame and no back damage.

Recently I picked up a Series 1 Grove with the Wheaties Ad still attached at the bottom... See the scan below.... You can see the rest of my Grove Wheaties panels at the link below...

SGC will grade the ones I have as " A " because of the blue border missing, I was also told the Micky C with the white hat is very rare- go figure- Thank you all for the great support---I guess I will sell all of mine . :D

I had this graded by SGC little over a year ago. At the time it was the highest grade ever given for a 1935 Wheaties - SGC 50. I have been tempeted to toss a few bucks in the wind, send it back for review - sure looks better than SGC 50 to me. No creases, but it does have a very small amount of inside box stain on back.
