Default WOW! T206 Wagner PSA graded.

I'm pretty confident that label has been photoshopped. If you take the image and blow it up, the pixelation doesn't look right compared to other blown-up PSA labels. The discoloration around the letters is more consistent with inserted text blocks than with text printed onto a sheet of paper. It looks like the original label information was whited out (the white is way too clean) and the new text inserted.

I don't like PSA, but I think there's a good chance that this is an altered image and not their fault. Someone did their homework in the PSA cert database, found a good number, and doctored up this slab.

The other possibility is that the slab was cracked open and a photoshopped label placed inside it; there does seem to be a lot of frosting along its left edge.

Maybe he is telling the truth and he bought it this way. If so, he got ripped off, and he's about to return the favor to someone else.
