Default Someone asked about PRO?

At one time, it was perhaps an excellent condition card worth 40 to 60% of guide. Now, with its perfect edges and diminutive size, it's more like 10 to 15%. What's the point of doing this to a card?

Still, I suppose to some vintage collectors, a card like this is preferable to one with multiple creases or surface damage. It is kind of sad, however, to see the sheer quantity of attractive, mid-grade Hall of Fame cards that are encountering this type of pedantic butchery.
