probably just a little doctoring...

. The camera pics always look so much better than the scans. I think that could be the culprit of the "doctoring", I don't know? I think the card in hand looks right. There are only 2 other pairs of hands that touched the card. I now know where the card has been since 1952. That's pretty hard to do.


very grateful to find out the history in any case.
1 pair of hands is a reputable AH (no, really) and the other is the guy I bought it from that worked with him to put the card in the new holder.
But you NEVER SAY never in this hobby, you know that.

People will have to judge it based on all the pics when it goes up for sale, I guess and bid accordingly
