Removing Card From Graded Case
I building a 1952 Topps set and have purchase several graded cards in the 4 to 6 range. For my on personal enjoyment I'd like to remove some of them from their case and put them with the other cards in sheets. What is a easy and safe way to remove the cards without possibly damaging them? If it makes any difference some are PSA, some SGC, some Beckett and a few KSA. Also some of the SGC say they are form the Rothman Collection. Would these cards have an extra premium and need to be left in their case? A collector friend says he has used a hacksaw to remove some. I want to be safe no sorry.
This is actually my second 1952 Topps set. I purchased the first one in 1973 for $525 and sold it in 1987 for $15,000 for college money for one of my kids. It was actually 4 cards short of a set missing 3 high numbers and card #253. The Mantle was probably a 5.
