Remember that Pre-War collectors used to complain that Beckett Vintage graded too hard. At that time at least, these collectors (many seasoned collectors on this board) would have said Beckett had a predilection to undergrading Pre War cards, not overgrading. These collectors said they chose PSA and SGC, because they weren't as harsh in their grades.

I don't know how things have changed with Beckett's grading since then, but I thought this was an interesting historical nugget, in particular with the claims that Beckett might overgrade a T206.
