and we think its just the high grades-unbelievable-thanks for sharing Anthony.

Now we need SGC to tell us who submitted the card! I know you are reading this-the doctor and SGC. Sooner or later we will find out. I know its against SGC rules to tell but the doctor will keep at it until?

Submitters' identities are sacred in the TPG world. Imagine if one could look them up, what hell would break loose.

Anthony, either the card doctor is amazing at what he does OR I suspect that second area of "loss" on that first scan may have in fact been extra paper that when moistened came right off as I'm not seeing anything of that shape & size on your "after" scan.

Hey Rhett,

That may well prove to be the case, but the more I've looked at it under magnification, the more I've come to believe that the paper has been transplanted. I agree that the closeup photo doesn't convey that. I just ordered a jewelers loupe and will know better in a few days.

Black light might be interesting too. Thanks for posting this - fascinating! (Nice detective work using the VCP too.)

Cheers,
Blair

According to VCP the ebay seller is foodledotnet. That ID must have undergone an id change as there is no listing for it on ebay. However someone who signed in as Eric on the old board identified himself as foodledotnet on the 5/7/08 post on this thread http://www.net54baseball.com/showthread.php?t=89599.

And a more recent post on another board links someone by the name of cozmokramer to that ebay id http://www.sportscardfreaks.com/foru...ards-sale.html. If this is the same cozmokramer who posts here maybe he can tell us who he sold the card to.

I want to make this very clear. Foodledotnet, ie Cozmokramer, did nothing wrong here. He sold the original unaltered card. I want to make that very clear. The alterations happened after he sold it. I know you're saying that, Greg, but I just want to clarify, because your first sentence sort of implies otherwise.

maybe eric can tell us if it was paperloss (or paper stuck to it) on the card or he knows why it was in an authentic holder...that should clear alot of stuff up. i'm prolly giving too much benefit here but that seems like alot of work to get a low value card from an A to a 10 holder (if more than swab of cotton and water is involved)...

p.s. also well-played A. bringing more attention to the card you're about to sell

What the...? You serious? There was nothing in my post that was implying anything, Anthony.
