Looks like border chipping to me also. John, if you are in any position to keep the card you should. There is such a nice history with the piece, and memories that go with it when you look at it and have it in your posession. I've had items that I have regretted ( personal memories ) selling and would give anything to get them back.

yes its border chiping or slight edge paper loss not sure how that happened over the years or if it came out of the pack like that. I still think the card should grade a 6 or 7

[sportscollector]

its probably a sign from gramps up above looking down on me angry that I sold the card. I will be refunding the person and getting it back I will send it to either SGC or BVG and share the grading results here.

Along with one of the edges. I am not referring to the paper loss at the top. Again I'm going off scan and the things I'm seeing I may discount in person. If this card ends up in a holder does not mean the original assessment was not correct. I'd still rather see in person to give a 100% opinion. I would not be shocked if either removed from scrapbook of som sort or had something erased from back. These concerns could be due to the scans settings or glare.

Perhaps this is a sign that you were meant to keep the card afterall.

I'd personally keep any card my grandfather passed down through the family.

I bet BVG grades it a 7.5? or SGC grades it 82 or 84

There is a saying in the business world that the third generation will loose the company, either by driving it to the ground or selling it, basically not owning it anymore, I guess the same hold thru for baseball cards.

I've heard, "Shirtsleeves to shirtsleeves in three generations..."

Nice Cobb card, whatever you decide.

Another possibility is bleaching. Someone may have touched up the top edge or a small spot with a little clorox. If PSA picked up on it under black light they won't grade.
