He was probably the most popular card collector in the world at the time and had the best baseball card collection in the world.
I am not kidding.
He would buy PSA 8s pre war and try to cross to sgc 88s because he hated psa..He had a 40 percent success rate.
He hated psa for good reasons
Why would a millionaire do this?
I am not an sgc fan but a psa fan.
I have scans of these cards in psa 8 holders and tried to cross back to psa.
Sent 25 cards for cross and not one crossed.

For PSA, the time that the card was graded matters, as PSA is stricter now with grading than they were when they first started. I never trust the grades for PSA cards that have a cert # that start with "0" as most of these are over-graded with today's standards. That's why I believe in the cases that you are mentioning, the cards won't cross back into PSA at those same original grades.
