Slow day at the law office Peter? Most of "us" know if we like a card in about 5 to 10 seconds. I just squeezed another 5 seconds in which I'm sure you picked up in being a detailed person. When you referred to "us" is that you and some loyal followers you have? Is it you representing all collectors, or is it representing you and your best friend lassie your loyal 🐶

Try not to hijack another thread or make something out of nothing.

JC, you really should quit while you are behind.

"Us" is the board, obviously. I was referring to your post where you confidently pronounced that the grade was "very accurate."

And you must be a better man than I am, because I could never make that determination -- recall cards have a back too -- in 5 seconds. Especially about an expensive vintage card. Sure, I would know whether I liked it, but that wasn't the question. Nice attempted deflection though.

And I am not hijacking the thread at all. The thread is about 1925 Exhibit Gehrigs. We are discussing one. Indeed, you first raised the topic of the one in LOTG. Now that it is live, I posted because I was struck by the (apparent) contrast between it and others I have seen, and was interested in what people had to say. As you said you had seen the card, I asked you a perfectly reasonable question, and you begged off.

Feel free to respond with more remarks like the one about Lassie though. Very impressive.

At the show, crappy cell phone pic but card looks good to me...

The card looks good in Jeff's picture. I said the card looked good when I saw it in person to. Not sure what you are implying Peter other than you are confused. Maybe you got confused when I said you need to make sure to look at the color tint on all 1925/26 Exhibits as they are very tough to tell apart. Feel free to keep discussing the Gehrig.

I was confused because I asked you what I thought was a straightforward question, whether in hand the SGC 60 looked like the PSA 4 (despite the apparent huge differences in appearance based on the scans), and instead of answering you put up what seemed to be a disclaimer that you had only looked at the card for 5 seconds.

Why should an SGC 60 look like a PSA4. Its an SGC 5 and looks like one. Whats your point?

You must not have read the posts leading up to it; they give the context for the question.

It must look good to someone as it is currently at $ 67K

It's probably gonna go for over $100K, not too many out there especially in this grade.
