My 2 cents
I agree with the last two posters, and also believe it is a waste of time having these graded. I do not have much faith in grading companies when it comes to these or other non-standard "cards"-- PSA's grading of Domino disks is laughable. Slabbing for protection is really not necessary here either--the silks are durable enough that you risk little in handling them. Next, there is no registry frenzy on these, as PSA loyalists are not likely to show any interest (since PSA doesn't grade them), and SGC folks in general buy the card not the holder anyway (not sure about Beckett). Finally, there is little risk of fakes or of alteration with these--except maybe the affixing of backs to the S74 whites that came from other sources, so WYSIWYG pretty much applies.
If anything I think the holder detracts from a nice display of these, especially with the mylar or other insert. I'd free them from their tombs and sell as is.
