You'd think no one could outdo PSA's stupidity in putting a sticker on that letter, but you'd be wrong.

Not only that, but at least make a nice 3X5 or something, my 3 year old daughter could have done a better job with those plastic safety scissors!

I just hope he puts a piece of scotch tape over the cut when he puts it in his album to protect it!

I have a few things with those kinds of stickers. There should be a law against them . And of course removing that signature should be illegal too !! That is crazy.

James, they must have certified the letter in whole w/ the signature.
Since once the signature was missing, it was juts a typed letter and that's a service they don't provide.

When I first read the ebay description, I thought maybe the seller was playing a bizarre joke on us. It's hard to believe that he couldn't anticipate how stupid other collectors would think his actions were.

As strange as strange goes for sure.

BUT I once sold Johnny Grabowski's LAST Yankee contract (1929) , Grabowski is one of the all time toughies from the 1927 team, He died in 1946. It was an historically significant contract and found out later the buyer was going to CUT the signature out for a display. (hope he's not reading this). I thought he was joking.....HE WAS NOT JOKING. Another collector came to the rescue and worked out a trade plus cash for his Grabowski cut in exchange for the intact 1929 Contract
