As the cards are already altered I would propose a scarlet letter "A" for altered embossed directly on the front and back of the card. Pretty much nothing else will protect the hobby from garbage, sad as the fact may be.

Jason, so Heartland (whoever that is), is currently selling the card? If so, I think a more effective header would be “Heartland at booth ____ is selling a green Cobb known to be altered. Beware”

Steve, thanks for pointing this out. We need to police ourselves.

Correct. I will be there today and look to see if it's still out or has been purchased.

I don't know that they know what they have, but one would think any dealer would check the lists before touching a $5K card these days.

for what it’s worth, Heartland is Bill Goodwin’s new company, which he started after Beckett cut ties with him.

And an altered significant card re-enters the hobby. Good result, Steve.

His prediction of the 55 Koufax in PSA 8 being worth 200K has not quite materialized.
