Thoughts on Crossing '50 Robinson from BVG to SGC

[phil22]

It looks a lot better in the SGC holder. I really like their holders.

I am about to send in several BVG slabs to SGC myself.

Looks good that way too..but you could always criss- cross it back if you wanted to

1) I agree about the appearance of the SGC slab. Imo it is the nicest looking of the 3 for most vintage cards.
2) The fact that SGC gave it a "4" is more a reflection of what is a changed/higher standard (albeit never communicated by SGC or PSA) rather than "Beckett getting it wrong". If you are looking at cards graded 10 years ago by the 3 grading companies, I would say they were likely graded with similar standards (the incredible subjectivity of grading notwithstanding). Stricter is not more accurate. It is just stricter. This would apply to cards graded by PSA or SGC years ago as well - (with plenty of exceptions) - on average, cards graded more recently, have been graded more strictly. Leaving a freaking mess today. Buy the card-not the holder! In all cases, a great looking Jackie and I'll finish where I started - it looks better (grade aside) in the SGC holder.

Or wait a couple years and cross it over to get a PSA 1.5!
