Not really. The only reasons to grade vintage cards with PSA despite all of the headaches and delays and high costs are to: (a) compete on their registry, or (b) make money on flipping the flip.
Like it or not, PSA sh**s money for submitters...that's the ballgame right there regardless of age of the cards. I sent in a raw beater Bill Russell RC worth about $600 and several months (and an upcharge) later I owned a PSA 1.5 worth $1100. Now worth $2000. And who is gonna pay top dollar for a 1952 Mantle or a 1958 Jim Brown if it isn't in one of those sacred plastic holders with the holy script numerical grade writ on the label?
