Unquestionably, this card appears as if it has just been pulled from a 1961 Topps wax pack, unquestionably destined to become the centerpiece attraction of one of the finest PSA Registered sets extant!

I believe some of the people able and willing to spend that much appreciate a bit of a "show" language wise. Sort of like the menu in a fancy restaurant.

Perhaps that's why the results I generally got on Ebay were a bit under what others got, my descriptions were more like "this is this card and this is the grade I give it. See the picture"

Sort of the difference between "grass fed organic beef from special cows grilled on a special metal grill and flavored with unicorn tears" And "I gots Steaks! Big ones too!"
