Default ' Pet Peeve

Posted By: warshawlaw

SGC listed this item exactly as it should be listed: the way it is [mis]spelled on the card itself. If the card has a spelling error that is part of the identifying information, it is not the job of the grader to correct it. This comes up quite often with T225 cards, where the Khedivial company for some silly reason misspelled its own name as "Khedival" on a lot of cards, and with the T226 Red Sun "Puglistic" Subjects. In both cases, the correct designation on the holder is the designation on the card itself. I suppose that the grader could use [sic] to indicate he is aware of the error and is replicating it on purpose, but what is the point of that on a card holder?
