If the strip collectors out there submit a card for grading do you already know how it will come back based on the history of that issue or is it a crap shoot? Just curious if anyone has any opinions.
Nice cards all and thanks for sharing!

This is a great question Tony. I would like to get my W572 Ty Cobb graded but don't know who to send it to. I thought you had a better chance to get a grade from SGC then PSA but with these post I'm not sure. Did PSA give grades out earlier but now put authentic on cut cards? Who should I have grade my Cobb? Thanks D.

What I have found, for the most part, is if the card meets the minimum size requirements based on the measurements listed in the SCBC, the grading company will usually give a numerical grade, otherwise it usually gets an "Authentic".

I've sent strip cards to both SGC and PSA and it's like playing craps. Obviously, a strip card has to have all four margins to receive a numerical grade (although, I've had exceptions). But, in my opinion, on any given strip card submission, whether one receives a grade other then "A," depends solely on the grader. Regrettably, there just isn't any ryhme or reason to the process. I'll post a pic later today of a recently submitted SGC graded Cobb strip card, that I thought was a 100% candidate for a number grade. Alas it came back authentic.

Lovely Day...
