Default 1934 Goudey--PSA vs. SGC Pop Totals--Some Interesting Comparisons
Posted By: Jim Crandell

Cmoking,

Great stuff and insights.

The argument I think carries the most weight for PSA is that there are a significant number of collectors looking to put together high-grade sets.

Still, the sample size is pretty large and PSA has twice as large a percentage in psa 7 or higher. This I think is suggestive of somewhat tougher grading standards over time by SGC but it is no means conclusive.

Also not sure I buy the argument that if you sell a high grade pre-war HOF that you get more for it in a PSA holder--commons in 8-unquestionably-but as WP points out, not necessarily so with stars.

Jim
