PSA was always going over their estimated turnaround time, so they raised it from 45 business days to 50. It's always going to be longer for prewar cards because they often have to do some research to make sure some of the sets are correct w/ variations. I just recently sent PSA two orders, one for prewar and one for vintage, both with the 50 day turnaround. The vintage submission only had 1957 - 1975 Topps cards. It turned around in 5 business days, most likely b/c it was an easy submission to grade. My prewar submission is still sitting there, and I expect that it will take the full 50 days if not more. I have a bunch of complex strip cards in there such as W516-1, W516-1-2, W516-2-1, W516-2-2, W516-2-3, severely cropped W515-1 and W515-2. It took me hours to figure out which sets the cards belonged to, so I expect it'll take PSA some time also.
