Default Picture of Wagner PSA 8 before grading
Posted By: MW

Larry,

I think part of the problem stems from the fact that in the second picture of the T206 Wagner on the NY Daily News website, the card is actually leaning against another object at an oblique angle. Therefore a certain distortion (parallax) is created that is typical of this type of photography. Furthermore, in the first image of the Wagner on the NY Daily News site it is clear that the inner border on the card is uneven -- another indication of photographic distortion.

I'm sure some photography experts (David Rudd?) can explain this effect better.
