Default The first card PSA ever graded

Posted By: Julie

a comparison of size (I was amazed at the earlier post in which someone said he had actually compared the size of the Wagner to some commons--and the Wagner didn't measure up!), and , more subtly, the edges. A 100-year-old card will generally taper to the edge, especially at the corners. Most dealers routinely check the edges of T206s in this way....pretty hard with an encapsulated card, huh? Was PSA born to hide the edges of a trimmed card?

It may be the hobby and it may be the card of all time, but if anyone ever has the guts to prove it is a trinmmed card,. everyone will acknowledge that an enormous fraud has been perpetrated. Even if the present owner is Mother Teresa.
