Ericyou'd have upgraded this card to a VG perhaps. I was actually thinking about inviting Verkman over to grade my cards, as he seems to have a perfect record of seeing beauty beyond beauty. I wish he worked at SCG, I'd send off everything to him personally.
Even though the issue in question here is the oldest baseball card set in the 20th century, it doesn't make allowances for two enlarged pinholes, and what appears to be caramel stains (how'd they get there?). This card would be accurately graded as POOR in my book, even if I owned it...maybe a Fair-. This incident doesn't bother or surprise me....because,after all..he has stated the following..
"We are one of the most reputable and honest sellers in the history of the sports memorabilia and autograph business and have been quoted and/or profiled on CNBC, Newsweek Magazine, the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal."
Hey Steve..can I get a LOA for the stains too..I wanna make sure they're real?!
