yea dan...that is what i think the front is like. there are a couple variations from the NY to BOS. from removing the photos i can tell the glue was applied around the edges...so most likely the glue would be close to the signature...if not directly underneath it.
there is an option from jsa to have the sticker applied to the piece...or on the LOA. i was hoping to remove the pc (preserving as much of the front as i could) and take advante of SGC/JSA $10 slabbing fee for JSA-authenticated piece.
...and yes i did cut down the cardboard waiting for a better idea
