Another thing that is interesting is the results on the trimmed T206s. The red portrait Cobb, Young portrait and Johnson portrait. All clearly trimmed, all SGC A:

Cobb: $3240
Young: $1,560
Johnson: $1,560

I wondered what altered cards might sell for properly disclosed. With the insane prices of (allegedly) unaltered cards, maybe this is a way to collect on a budget. Would you prefer an A like one of these or a 1-1.5?
I won the SGC A Cobb and you nailed it Adam - I think altered cards properly identified as authentic and not given numeric grades are great looking cards for the price. I know a lot of people don't like altered cards, but for me this is a much better looking card at $3240 than a 1 for just as much (or more)
