leonAlmost all collectors, except the "number on the plastic" folks agree, especially in 19th century sepia type cards (N172,n175 etc). The photo is always the most important thing and the grading companies won't take it into account. I have had PSA and SGC cards that were high grade and they looked like a shadow of a player....yet I have had cards graded a 1 with almost perfect photos, absolutely gorgeous, and some damage to the blank back.....I doubt it will ever be corrected to have the photo taken into account as it's too subjective....regards
