Hello boxing fans,
In my quest to put together a complete set for Abe Attell, I recently purchased this 1942 Sam Taub Matchbook Cover.

My questions are:
1. Should this matchbook cover (or any for that matter) be included in the registry for Abe Attell "cards"?
2. How do I submit this to SGC (since all my others are SGC graded) and what do I put on the submission form?
3. Any thoughts on rarity, scarcity, value?

I already sent an email to SGC but I thought I would get some feedback here as well. Looking forward to any thoughts and feedback.

Thanks,
~Chris.

Personally, I'd include it as a U-unc issue or an H-unc issue. I have it in my boxing book with other Adam Hats materials. As for value, it is a relatively common item and has very little value because it isn't a picture piece; collectors like pretty pictures. Probably only worth about five bucks on a good day. Considerably tougher is one of these:
