Cool collection as always!

Peace, Mike

PS Always nice to have Walter Johnson's grandson comment right after you! Hey Hank!

No just dirty and old---I will sent to SGC, but I dont want the $100 per card service--so I will get them back in who knows when.

How timely Don! As that new service just rolled out! Ugh! Great find as always! Thanks for sharing and stay safe up there in Maine during these crazy times.

Peace, Mike

Very nice Don!

Something beside being old had to have caused those flips to discolor. I have 100's and 100's of SGC cards that were graded well over 10 years ago and the flips look the same as the day there were graded.

Yeah, I love these. And agree those flips looks very peculiar to me. Among other things, they all look the same to me. Why would a flip (made a few years ago) look 10x dirtier than a card made 100 years old? Odd.

Old SGC flips will discolor like that if they are left out exposed to sunlight. I've dealt with a handful of them, and they definitely seem to be a result of being left out to the sun for years. Could be on display or something like that. The cards may or may not have faded at all, but the flips look like crap.

Very nice old holders not cared for.
