Wow...crazy. bottom left corner on that 5 looks pretty jacked! I'm kinda surprised that's the 5, but I guess consistency from PSA is asking a lot these days.
Thanks to the OP for doing this. It was fun. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

Just goes to show, grading is a freaking scam. Thank you, Darren, for starting this thread and posting these kinds of things. If this is not case in point why people should not spend money on a slab label, I don't know what is. Collectors should be over the days of paying others money to judge what is or is not supposed to look like a good card to us.

To temporarily bring this thread full circle, here's another 1961 #554 Pirates Team PSA 8OC (the card that initiated the thread) that I recently picked up pretty cheaply...

Let's call today's contest The Brooklyn Dodgers Challenge...
(These cards were randomly placed in two rows, so there is no underlying rhyme or reason to the layout. As always...no cheating!!) I've selected five 1957 Johnny Podres cards (random screenshots that are pretty similar to each other) that are all graded either a PSA 8 or PSA 9...but only one of them has an OC qualifier, just one. Which one has the scarlet letter(s) OC?? (The top row contains cards #1, 2, 3, and the bottom row has cards #4, 5.)  Disclaimer: Sorry, winners will not receive a lifetime supply of Rice-a-roni.

I'd have to guess #2. They all look pretty darn good.
