Default Very interesting history on the Wagner psa 8/trim

Posted By: daryle

I viewed "THE" card in 1992 at the National Convention in Atlanta. This is the first time I've viewed these articles, but have heard of them. When I saw the card in '92 I only knew that it was the "PSA8 WAGNER!!!!". My first thoughts when I got up close to the card (if you didn't see it that weekend it was in a big stand up glass case on a pedastal on an 8-foot table all by itself and you could get like 3 inches from the card) was "It looks like it's been trimmed." Really that was my thoughts. I turned to my friend (R.I.P........1974-1997), who was not that big of a collector, but had seen my T206s and the other several 1000 that we had looked at the show, and asked him to look at it close. He agreed...............trimmed. Then, the news hit.........is it trimmed??????..............hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm I'd rather have on in lower grade than this one, because its trimmed!...........
