History:

First off, let me say that I am assuming - reasonably safely, I believe - that these scans show the exact same card. Anyway, I bought this Red Cross in May '07 as a PSA 2, only to bust it out, as I was wont to do back in my Slab Liberation Army days. At that time, the card had an almost coast-to-coast vertical wrinkle over the left side of the front surface. I eventually sold the card to a hobby buddy who submitted it to SGC, which also gave the card a 2. My buddy later sold the SGC 30/2 on eBay. Since then, the card has apparently found its way into a PSA 5 holder and is again on the auction block. I could offer only speculation as to the card's journey since it left my buddy's hands, but such a dramatic improvement in grade on a card that was such an obvious 30/2 is worth noting.
