Yes I can respect that. As I have said, I do not think they should even be cataloged. I don't care about them not grading, it is the reason that is a joke. A professional grader should know the issue and should know that they are original. My point is that the grading companies can be better by hiring or part time consulting with knowledgable experts yet they don't. I personally do not think strip cards or any other hand cut cards should be graded except for "authentic". They also returned my 2 1941 Playball paper cards which have to be handcut since they were only issued on sheets. They graded the Jimmie Foxx at a show that was hand cut and acquired at the same time. Again, I have no problem with items not grading, I do expect consistency through certain issues and a realistic reason why they didn't grade. Dan.
