T206 Willis portrait on ebay

Posted By: Pete Z. 

I was thinking of bidding on this T206 Willis portrait, but think it looks a little small in the holder. Does anybody else think so? My limited experience collecting T206s tells me there's not enough border on the card. You'd think, however, that a card like that would not be able to get into a six holder. Thanks for any thoughts in advance.

First impression correct size. But would never bid on Hiogh Grade T206s PSA cards.

Pete,
In my opinion the border size looks sufficient. But, if you don't like the way they look or have reservations I would not bid. Spending that much money on a card and having reservations is no good. You'll end up not giving it the love it deserves!

You also have to consider "incentive to trim". Normally a "6" is safe.

psa has a couple different widgets for their holders. i have one t206 that is correct size but its holder is significantly larger than normal. sorta ticks me off cause the card can float around. judge the amount of border, not how much room is in the holder.

T206's came in many legit sizes, this card is not trimmed and is properly graded by PSA. I would say a nice addition to any collection, Dan.
