The Vintage Beckett Grading Team headed by Andy Broome & Mark Anderson is very knowledgeable about the vintage card market and are willing to do the necessary research in order to be on the cutting edge when it comes to encapsulating challenging issues that may have never been encapsulated before. As mentioned previously in this thread, their grading standards are as stringent as any grading company in the business (not a GAI strongpoint) and their new oversize holder does open up many doors for larger items to be graded that could never be encapsulated before. I view the way Beckett looks at new items as a refreshing change from the old PSA policy of "if it is not catalogued, we do not grade it".
