Well in the end I opted not to bid on this one. Seeing the way the price was going, I just couldn't resolve paying that much for a card with staining on the reverse.
Maybe I'll have to wait for the National, but I figure if I'm gonna pay a premium, I'm gonna get one of the highest quality.
Instead, I won an auction for a '52 Clyde Sukeforth. Dead perfect centering, great colors and excellent corners. Grade PSA 5, but I plan to crack and resubmit. It'll be a welcome addition to my set!
