Need help on SCD 8.5
 

Posted By: <b>fessgreg</b><p>Ricks rare cards, www.rarecards.com, has a 1933 Goudey #181 Babe Ruth SCD 8.5. What do you think it would crossover to in a PSA or SGC holder? And what do you think of the card?<br /><br />Thanks<br />fessgreg

Posted By: <b>Marc S.</b><p>that Rick is smart enough to realize that if he could get it into a PSA 8 or SGC 88 holder, the card would sell for more money.<br /><br />That should be the end of the discussion right there.

Posted By: <b>Matt</b><p>Maybe it's just my eyes, but the entire right border and the top most section of the left border look a little wavy to me. I don't think the risk here is that it will either cross at a PSA 8 or 7, I think the risk is that it will either be a PSA 8 or an "A."

Posted By: <b>Steve Murray</b><p>I don't think it's just your eyes Matt. Looks like it to me too. <br /><br />Personally, I would take a pass.

Posted By: <b>Paul S</b><p>IMHO, too good to be true. Are the borders of this issue that much wider top-to-bottom as they are side-to-side? None of mine are, although they are not in as great condition.
