Yes, those BGS slabs are ridiculous, but they’re the only TPG that will grade this issue (not that it’s necessary).

For what it’s worth, there are a few team cabinets and pins that have images that pre-date his M101 image (1895 Warren and 1896 Paterson teams come to mind), but who cares? Your piece kicks arse!!! That would look great in any collection!!!
Thanks Derek, I don't know about those other images? Im assuming those items must be pretty tough, Ill have to keep my eye out...but wow, minor league images from 1895?

So the mail lady came again, she is being nice to me at the moment.
