Hi Patrick,

Thanks for the response.

To answer your question: The checklists for the 1956 Topps set are difficult and expensive. Most were marked along time ago and collectors threw them away. I believe the card would probably grade a 6 if not marked or stained. Almost all of the examples of the card for sale on eBay are graded and also are marked, so it seems that the card still has great value even with the pencil marks. There is also some light staining on the back of my card. I have only sent three submissions into PSA, so I am unsure if a card can receive two qualifiers, in this case stained and marked? and if it did receive both qualifiers would it still be worth grading?

Best regards,

Joe
