Fred CDid you buy the card for the autograph or because you wanted a Goudey Gehrig? I get the feeling that you wanted the autograph. We never plan on anything bad to happen but picture this... you crack the slab, you get your water and materials ready. Ooops, you accidentally drop the card in the water and mess up the signature or you drop the card on a corner and now you can have a card with a cleaned back and squished corner...
Worse yet, you crack the slab, clean it up and PSA says the card is now altered and wont encapsulate it again... Ok, maybe not that...
The signature is great, who cares about the back?
