|  1968 Topps printing flaws question? 
			
			Hi Folks, We all know the basket weave border of the 68 Topps set. I recently bought a 68 Manny Sanguillen raw graded nrmt-mt by the seller. The photo on Ebay showed no flaw. When received there was an even white line about 1/8 inch up from the bottom in the basket weave. I would not have bought the card had I seen this. I’ve seen this before on 68’s. The card has pretty good eye appeal. Question is: would PSA downgrade a card with this flaw, even if the card is sharp otherwise? Thanks for input/opinions on this unique 68 printing issue Haven’t figured out the photo thing here, sorry George |

			Here is an example of this from another card.  |

			That is a sheet border line.  PSA probably wouldn't discount for it unless the card is highly off-center, but since it's on the front of the card, it *could* get a MC qualifier.  So if the card was perfect otherwise, it would get a 9(MC) and count as a 7 for the registry, but probably sell between a PSA 6 and 7 price.
