I don't know exactly how the T206 is held in the Topps holder (within semi-rigid plastic or soft plastic? Is it removable from the holder?). But seems to be a resonable and obvious conclusion that one cannot grade a card unless it is removed from any holder. I'm sure that each of has experienced how a top loader or even a penny sleave can hide wrinkles and blemishes (ink marks on a 1971 Topps). At least, it appears that Champs didn't give the grade for the Topps holder, which is what I was half-expecting
