Jim, I will submit it to SGC, because I don't do PSA. Also, a plus with SGC is that I can submit the card to them in person at the Chantilly Show. Actually, I would keep the card raw (most of my highest-vauled cards are raw, my having acquired them before grading became the in thing), but all of my other T206 Va. League cards just happen to be slabbed.

To clarify what I said earlier in this thread about erasing the pencil marks and then re-submitting this card, I would not be looking for or expecting anything more than an "A" grade or a "1" grade from SGC. I just want a card that is more pleasing to my eye when I view it.

Bescher Name at Top only, a fun little oddity

I like to add cards of HOF Honorees to my HOF collection, if those guys actually PLAYED professional baseball. Recently picked up these two. My very first T207 and a slightly post-war, oddball newspaper issue.

I was able to pick up my first 19th century card for my Hall of Fame player collection - 1888 Allen and Ginter Buck Ewing

Question for those of you who are more knowledgeable than me - the SGC slab says N43, but the person I purchased from says this is mislabeled and is an N29. Is there a way to know for sure or could this be an N43 that was cut down to the size of the N29 from those sets? Just my curiosity and wondering if it is worth me sending to reslab with the correct set (if it would be N29). Thanks for any help!

It certainly looks like an N29, but the N43 has the N29 card plus some surrounding images. This doesn’t look cut out of an N43, but the back would tell you for certain.

I did not think to look up the back of the N43 and realize the text was full size for the oversized card. The back of mine is the same size of the card so it is definitely the N29. I appreciate the response.
