You're most welcome for the info! And thanks for that heads up. If I do get my display set up, I'll definitely have to keep it out of direct sunlight. I appreciate that FYI. BTW, that truly is a classic picture!

Best always,

Probably will never do it in Canada though, it would probably be too large a hassle and or cost ineffective to ship the slabbing machine into the country.
I thought, at the Toronto spring Expo, that Beckett was grading cards while you wait, but found out you could only submit there.

I did converse with an SGC guy way earlier in the year, and at an Ohio show, they were grading, and I believe slabbing cards, but he said to come real early if I wanted my card(s) back that day.

Both PSA and SGC said they don't attend CDN shows due to the expense/hassle. Not sure if they ever did, but I can understand their reasons.

Someday I'll travel south to attend one of these shows or take a vacation and take my cards directly to their shops, but until then, I think I will wait to submit/mail them in.

Thanks for the info, Glyn.
