Perhaps there are some slab busting old-timers on here that have a stash of the rounded corners labels you seek...
Eeeek...collect the card, not the label! Brian Last edited by brianp-beme; 06-21-2018 at 11:47 AM. Reason: Added extra 'e' to my eek |

It Drives me Nuts. I Can't Even Look at the Card because I Just Focus on the Label and Can't Get Past the Fact that it is Square. It is soooo Ugly to Me. I once Bought a Card (Ken Griffey Jr. RC). The Picture had Rounded Corners so I Bid and Won It arrived with Square Corners !!!! It was not the Exact Same Card in the Auction Picture (Same Card and Grade) but not same serial number and Square Corners. I Literally Threw it in the Garbage and Won Another 1989 Bowman Griffey PSA 9 (I had to ask the seller before I paid if it was the actual card in the picture and not copied from another auction) on eBay. I am Not Joking at all. It went into the Garbage. I started Buying PSA in the 1990's before they Switched. And I Don't Like Change I Guess. If I found a Genie in a Lamp my 3 Wishes would be 1. Win the Lottery 2. Make PSA go Back to Rounded Corners on Flips. 3. Make BVG go Back to Having Sub Grades - When I say Sub Grades I mean on the Front (Sub Grades on the Back are Unacceptable and I Won't Buy Those BVG Cards Either).

I could give you a good deal on some flips from cards I've busted over the years. I didn't know anybody collected them. Do you collect baseball cards too?

I believe there is a T206 Wagner out there that meets your criteria.
If I'm not mistaken the cert # is 00000001. I'll waive the finder's fee.

I am guessing that of the thousands of people collecting cards, you are the first and last to focus on this. I recommend exposure therapy. Buy some newer flips, leave them on your desk, force yourself to look at them. In time....
