Had it been in a box that wasn't cut up this wouldn't have happened. I don't know the value of the picture but it doesn't seem like it would be that much more expensive to pack and ship a 130 year old picture the right way. Even if I have to pay an extra buck or two for shipping I'd rather have my purchase arrive in the same condition as when I bought it.
This one, that graded card that was cracked, and NJ's t206 that was taped to an envelope all have the same thing in common. Preventable damage due to poor packaging. I do not blame the USPS at all. People know, or should know this can happen when shipping in an envelope without proper protection.
