It's nice to know SGC doesn't deduct for the blue stamp on the back of the Obaks because 3 years ago when I sent in the entire 150 series from 1910, they did just that. Two sides to the coin, glad to know SGC now recognizes that the blue stamps are prevalent and should not lower the grade, but on the flip side, I just can't see paying to have my whole set re-graded even though I know many of the cards would automatically shoot upward in grade. The cards look nice in the black holders so even if they are 30s and 40s instead of 50s and 60s, I'll keep them the way they are now.
I believe PSA still gives a qualifier for the blue stamps on the back but doesn't lower the numerical grade. I haven't submitted anything to PSA in quite a while so I am going by what I see on ebay...
