I have heard different things over the years with regards to 1914's and stains. In fact I was told recently that Psa will no longer give any 1914 with a stain a grade over 4. But I tend to doubt that.
What I do know for certain with Psa is that when they get a really, really nice 1914, a card in the 8 range, then the qualifiers kick in. That's why so many of the Psa 8 1914's (and there's not many) have a stain or OC qualifier. Someone, sometime at Psa made a rule about that.
