Default alterered?
I agree. I do not understand how when a grading company receives 50+ original very rare cards they do not justify how they believe the card was altered. I would love to know as well. Jeff W

it looks short top to bottom, which may have been how it was cut at the factory.

Yeah...the Chance is garbage...don't bother bidding on it, b/c with the dreaded "A" designation it's essentially worthless. I'd be willing to take one for the team and bid on it, just so others don't have to.

Amazing cards!

Bill

All is hunky dory...PSA was just indicating that the card was factory altered.

It is so exhausting, the lack of consistency and honestly, knowledge from PSA. Just like they grade the overwhelming majority of American Beauties as "miscuts" when those cards were specifically cut narrow to fit the AB packaging.

If T206 was some kind of oddball set, maybe you'd understand them not knowing every detail. But we are talking about one of the most important sets in the hobby, and one they've graded more than a quarter million cards for.

Edit > the Bres With Bat also looks short top to bottom and it too was graded A.

Thanks Jeff . . . as speculated, all 1887 OJs (possible 1886 in case of Orr spotted tie). Not a single 1888, 1889, or 1890 card. Seems as though the OJs are an original collection as well from a collector who smoked OJ brand in 1887.

Maybe he croaked before the 1888 release.
