Do you all think the red ink on the front of my Campbell would have completely disappeared as well after being exposed to a liquid agent, alias solvent? Remember, even water is a solvent.

Do you think a reputable Grading company, perhaps SGC, would be able to determine whether the ink color had been altered? Or is that asking too much in this crazy world we exist within?

No grading company will touch that card. They have been burned by too many altered cards that supposedly had missing ink. I have a 100% authentic missing ink card and SGC would not label it as missing ink.
