Posted By: <b>jay behrens</b><p>Several of the edges on the cards look wavy, but then if you look at the label scan, they have waviness to them too, so it might be illusion of the scanner, but given PSA's track record, I'd ask the seller about refund if they still look the same in person.<BR><BR>Jay

Posted By: <b>MW</b><p>I agree with Jay...it's tough to tell from the camera pics what each card actually looks like. Absent a better scan here's what I'm able to discern:<BR><BR>1. The wear on the Mathewson is fairly consistent.<BR>2. The rightmost corners on the Cy Young are much sharper than the leftmost corners. The right edge on this card looks somewhat suspicious.

Posted By: <b>runscott</b><p>Normally I wouldn't be concerned about a PSA-6 t206, but the Young looks bad. This could be the case of someone trying to turn a 5 into a 7 and coming up "short". <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>
