What in the hay?

I don't understand grading cards like these. Who does this and why?

I've always wondered the same thing. Sometimes on ebay I'll see a seller that has listed like 50 psa1, beat to hell t206s, and I'l just left scratching my head. Who's sending these in to be graded when it's obviously an authentic card, and it's obviously going to receive a grade of "poor"?

This card certainly made me look twice...I think the "hairnet" is made of tape? Someone was having a bit of fun with their tobacky card.

As far as why someone would want to have this card graded...I assume it would be to preserve the lustre of Mr. Jackson's shiny locks for all of posterity.

Where are all the T206 error guys on this one?

Is the "A" grade for the card? or the TPG's opinion on Mary's signature?

Cool card!
