Default Another GAI masterpiece

Posted By: DD

There's a huge difference, since there is clearly a market for vintage packs and empty boxes that meet different criteria. For the collector that desires examples of packs that based on tax stamps, overprints, etc., likely held a baseball card, a premium will be paid.

Since GAI is primarily a sports collectibles grading service, they are implying this pack contained an Old Judge baseball card. Their sports knowledge (to the average collector) lends credibility to this label.

Bottom line is - no proof of year it was issued, it should not be labeled with the baseball designation.
