Why do the strip cards always get graded "Authentic"... is it because they're hand cut or have I just missed those?
They were all hand cut, so most get authentic grades, but not all. It's in my personal collection, but I have a real nice Ross Youngs rookie graded a 5/60. Guess some people back then were just better at cutting on a dotted line
