The SGC one seems more vibrant. Unless the lighting was better

Fantastic pic thanks! Are the 2 cards in the same display case?

[Jay Wolt]

Geez, makes a world of difference
Hopefully neither card will fade w/ all of the lighting at the show

I think is the Fogel one. Not sure what's up with the lower left. Pic won't load so here is a link.

Jeff or others can correct me if wrong, but the 9.5 had overhead, direct lighting whereas the 10 was on a white, semi-transparent illuminated plastic platform that was much dimmer then the 9.5 lighting.

Amazing thank you!

Just doesn't look right with his bat on the wrong shoulder.

What else ya got?

All are amazing cards, but each have flaws. The DBacks PSA 10 has muddy Yankees lettering and a wobbly top horizontal bar containing Mick's sig. The PSA 10 in old holder is slightly off center, with a smaller space of the boarder to the top edge of the card vs larger space at bottom edge. The 9.5 has slight discoloration/staining at boarder to top edge of card, as has been discussed.

It seems like the 3rd PSA10 has been hiding from the internet for the past 30 yrs. No such image can be found on the internet.

I find the tilt on the PSA 10 to be way harder on my eye than the toning/stain on the SGC 9.5. I would therefore prefer the latter all day, and I am someone who does not give a flipping flip about the Coke vs Pepsi of SGC vs PSA. I despise all TPG opinions equally, buy the card, and have holders from both companies in my collection

I think the Murphy/Fogel Mantle is the best the sgc second diamondback collection third the third ten owned by a New York collector fourth and Haas GAI ten that was a PSA 9 probably 5th.

What do you think PSA would have graded the SGC one?
