i picked this williams rookie up for a good price. want to know if you guys think it has any chance of crossing to SGC or PSA. it measures perfect. just want opinions. here is a link to the front and back

here's my opinion: you're probably not the first who's entertained that idea and i bet this card has been submitted more than once for a crossover into the big 2.

I would crack it out of the GAI holder before sending to SGC or PSA. Prefer SGC, I just want to know if any of you eagle eye experts can see anything on this card that would keep it from receiveing a grade from SGC or PSA. I would rather have it in a SGC 88 or PSA 8 holder. dont care about it crossing to a 8.5. just want to know if it will grade by SGC or PSA

i wouldnt crack it. TRY to cross it and hope it doesnt fail

I heard sending cards in PSA or SGc in anonther company holder in not good idea. its like a automatic turn down vs sending it in raw

Maybe for PSA, but not SGC. SGC grades the card and will give bumps where warranted. I've had several PSA 4s come back SGC 60s -- big cards like Cobb and Grove, too.

most likely trimmed. i wouldn't crack that out.

Sorry.
