That is truly terrible, OP. I hope they compensate you fairly.
I am surprised to see how many people are surprised, though. It's been clear to me for years that PSA doesn't care. How many times have we seen tobacco cards put in holders where they just bounce around inside (sometimes hugely expensive cards)....

In addition to the OP and his check, I also believe Adam should be fully reimbursed by PSA for ruining that Joe Louis signed item.
It is completely unbelievable, and unacceptable, that PSA, or any grading company, would do that to an item entrusted to them. Steve

Thanks, Steve, but I bought it that way. I was not aware that the card unfolded until I got it, then I was faced with the dilemma of cracking it or not. I chose to keep it in the holder (and annoying) until a second example of the card surfaced years later and I was able to buy it and sell the slabbed (annoying) one. Still pending is removing that (annoying) GAI sticker...

Yea, I saw that sticker; I honestly don't know which is worse in my view.....the card being folded; or that stupid "in your face" sticker. Steve

Not to mention that the autograph appears to be secretarial.

Yeah, there's that too. Honestly, though, the card is so rare that I bought it for the card regardless of authenticity of the signature. How someone got a secretarial at an appearance is an interesting question.

Louis was notorious for having many different hands signing for him. There are so many secretarial versions. He was the Ted Williams of the ring in that regard. |
