Mike, thanks for the info, I appreciate you looking all of that up. I've read a couple of those articles myself. Some of these cards are God-awful looking. But I like some of the sets...the w555, w560, w572 amongst others are nice.
Marty, I think with the W555's if you can see a black border around the card, you'll be ok. I have a w555 Honus Wagner that's been graded as an SGC 60. I would post it here, but I've run out of Temporary File space on this server so I have to wait a couple days. I am looking to gather a few cards from these sets and maybe put a set together. Not too sure how they are graded but be careful. I sent what I thought was a really nice Jimmie Foxx w560 rookie card in to SGC to be graded and it came back as "Too Short". So they will refuse to grade them if they aren't wide enough. As far as jagged edges are concerned...not sure....
Marty, let me know how your w555 cards turn out, I'd possibly be interested in purchasing some or all of them. Keep me posted!
