Default TPG - Scrapps Tobacco

Since there is now pretty solid evidence that there was no such thing as "Scrapps Tobacco" and the cards identified as those were actually issued by H.D. Smith & Co., will PSA reslab those cards with the corrected manufacturer?

Do other TPG houses still use Scrapps or do they now do H.D. Smith?

I've wondered the same thing.

But as a collector with an average budget, I'm waiting on the sidelines until PSA lowers their prices before I send in anything.

As the guy who discovered the H.D. Smith thing, this frustrates me to no end.

I'm communicating with SGC and seem to be getting a bit of resistance. They don't seem to want to answer the question about relabeling a Scrapps Card as H.D. Smith & Co. unless I send my card into them.

Seems like an easy question. If I send it in, will you label it as H.D. Smith & Co. or not.

I didn't discover anything but I wish the TPG's would quit calling things "Hand cut" when they never were and aren't.
