Prognosis for "Shiny Corners"

[Bestdj777]

Welcome! I have never seen shiny corners or heard of any solution. I’d be tempted to try pantyhose though, which I understand can, on occasion, get gum stains out. Might be something to research further or to test out if you have any commons in your collection.

Does this condition show up in scans and if so can you post pics, maybe one of the pre war cards you mentioned and the Carew ?

I've seen what you are describing. The best answer is "maybe". Sometimes a TPG will flag it, sometimes not. If it is noticeable it will turn an otherwise near mint card into an ex card.

It took a while to get a good picture because it's much easier to see with the naked eye. Had trouble uploading the photo, so I'll post it later if I can.

Thank you to all for the responses so far!

Usually if you are having trouble uploading pics it is because they are too big. Shrink them down to 1.2mb or smaller.

Thanks for the hint on the picture, this one works. Quality of the pic is not great and yes, there is a glare, but you can definitely see the contrast towards the corner and how much brighter it is than the rest of the white border on this Jackson card. Couldn't get the Carew RC to show up on a pic--it's much easier to see with the naked eye.

Thoughts on whether or not this will go away over time, or with via some honest, acceptable means?
