Is there a company not out there that specifically cleans/fixes cards?
It's hard to say with this pic/card, but I would tend to believe it was professionally done?

It may have been professionally done.
The question is why wasn't it "professionally" caught?

Because there is no money in that.

Or another question should be who submitted the card and did they get a favor done. #PSAblewit

I don't know much about restoration of cards, but to me this looks like the first card was up against some acidic paper and the two corners were protected. The result is toning, which happens in old prints that have been framed with non-acid free mats and backing. The process to remove this toning is well established and very common. If my assumptions are correct, it might not have taken a whole lot to remove the toning from this one.

There's restoration companies that clean up posters, but that's more accepted in that field. They aren't cheap but I'm sure some of them would handle cards if given the business. This one certainly paid off for somebody. Likely not the guy who bought it from Goldin though. They'll probably be ecstatic if they break even at this point. |
