Posted By: <b>Frank Wakefield</b><p>I think your Willards Chocolates card of Ty Cobb looks fine. <br /><br /><br />What I think about grading and their occasional lack of ability, as<br />well as folks who buy the grade without being attentive to the card<br />itself... I'll keep that to myself.<br /><br />That is a nice card. I think that you could resubmit it, and ask for<br />someone to grade it who is familiar with Willards, then it may well<br />come back without a "mark" designation.<br /><br />Or you could just bust him out.

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>I think you need to look real close at the top border (especially) and check for indentions left by a pencil erasure.....that would count as an "mk" too....best regards

Posted By: <b>anthony</b><p>leon, i think you are right. i didnt notice that little line before and you (i) couldnt see it without holding the card at<br />an angel. it sucks but i feel better that it wasnt someone startoing to write over his name.

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>Hey Anthony,<br />I guess being addicted helps in knowing these things. I have handled quite a few V100's so had a feeling about the "mk".....I guess some big collector of them wrote on them a long time ago. Most have been erased and most have indentions left over. I have had many of them that have had indentions that couldn't be seen until you tilted the card.... best regards
