Today's example was a NM '72 Yastrzemski which looked like it had print snow on part of the black background. Noooope - just a dirty internal sleeve. It's now looking much better in a fresh top loader and a clean penny sleeve.  |
Nothing wrong with an ungraded card anyway, John...especially for a set. That little Beckett sleeve you are talking about adds a tricky little extra step when cracking out a card for sure. The desk specks are irritating.
