Still a NM (7) and you can still see the remnants of the tape stains IS a little concerning.
Wonder if that would be a (7) on any modern card with similar evidence of past taping on it.
Looking at the REA auction, it was probably cleaned up just to get the (4). Now another round of cleaning got it to a (7).  |
THey're not tape stains. The REA listing describes the marks very well, the card is age toned EXCEPT in those odd rectangular patches, so something was resting on or protecting those areas of original color. I want to know how they removed the toning from the rest of the card to get it to match those spots of original color so well.
