A slab-busting first
 
Posted By: <b>Frank Wakefield</b><p>Today seemed a good day for busting some slabs and liberating cards.<br /><br />One slab was from PSA, it was holding an E102 deserving of clemency. Oddly enough, he wasn't in the thin plastic sleeve inside the slab. The sleeve was in there, but he was resting on top of it. That seemed a bit odd, and I had not noticed it while the slab was intact. <br /><br />Any other slabbusters out there notice such stuff??

Posted By: <b>Frank Wakefield</b><p>Maybe I just never paid attention to it before. But I thought the others were inside the sleeve. I might have to bust another to see...
