Presentation and how about simply not damaging an item any more than it already is??? I'm floored.

That's just unbelievable.

Silver lining - good they didn't cut the signature out and place it in a more convenient smaller holder...

Why isn't Charles Weeghman on the flip?

That's what the card companies are for.

My only question: Was this check purchased already folded and later submitted in this fashion? If it wasn't, the person responsible for this needs to be fired and the fate of the person responsible for hiring this individual should also be reexamined. There's no place for this level of ineptitude, even at a TPA.

PSA should at least offer to authentic both halves of Weeghman's signature. One wonders if both halves would pass if it goes to the same grader.

As Leon suggested the *least* they should do is pay the purchase cost of the check and refund all fees. I'd also suggest a huge credit towards future submissions but I have a feeling that may be moot. It would be if this was my item.

That's awful but not unprecedented. PSA did the same thing to a rare Joe Louis appearance card.

This:

It looks like a first-grader put that check in that slab, but you gotta give PSA a break. They're still breaking in their summer staff. But seriously, that's just gut-wrenching. I hope they make it right, somehow.
