Hi Jim,

Congratulations on the graduations.

In the case of your 48 Leaf card, there are very few dealer who might not attempt to remove the wrinkle (or pay someone to do it). In fact I know many collectors who would make the same effort and many of the balance wouldn't do it because they couldn't not because they are purists.

I completely understand and respect your opinion on this subject but were Mastro be able to get your Leaf card into an 8 or a 9, like Peter said, it would not be disclosed as it would be one of those undetectable enhancements that cards of all grades ROUTINELY undergo, which Doug, in accordance with the grading companies, does not feel is an alteration.

Best,

Greg
