I know you're joking, but I actually like your grades a lot. I was expecting Cobb and Willis to be 1s, Clarke to be a 20 or 30, and Cicotte to be a 35 or Auth (wierd cut).
I really like Paul's response. Makes a lot of sense. Also, I'm not saying that SGC (or PSA) is doing a poor job. I just think the way we assign condition grades to 100 year-old baseball could use some work.
If you look at the Willis and Cicotte side-by-side in the same 20 holder, I think its really hard to say that our current system gives us enough room for differentiation at the bottom. Willis is beat to hell, and Cicotte is pretty nice.
