" What ever happened before the STUPID grading companys came along? "
pow323...... Now, that is a really great question. From the late 19th Century to the early 1990's this hobby grew, flourished, and was immensely enjoyable without plastic rectangles with assigned #s (at times arbitrary) encapsulating a BB card. Most of those years, BB cards were reasonably affordable and altering (trimming, re-backing, etc.) them was not worth the time, trouble or the risk. As prices started to really escalate (circa late 1980's), sure some dealers in the hobby resorted to these "measures". But, in the long run, those dealer's reputations have suffered. Your Matty looks good to me. And, I am upgrading cards in my all-PIEDMONT set. So, if you are interested in selling or trading it, then email me at...... tedzan11@comcast.net TED Z |
