Default T206 Red Cobb....Still Scratching My Head

Posted By: Al C.risafulli

That's a beautiful card. If the grade is important to you, I've found that sometimes cards like that get graded lower because they have almost imperceptible traces of glue residue on the back. If you crack it out of the holder, run your finger gently along the back. If you feel more resistance, or a "pull", in one area of the card, that's what the problem is. You also may be able to see it, holding it at an angle under a halogen bulb.

Either way, that's a gorgeous example of one of my favorite cards.
