Who will encapsulate signed pieces with JSA loa?

[chaddurbin]

Anyone tried this recently? SGC used to do this for a fee if you had a full JSA loa, but i'm not sure anymore since they opened their own auth dept?

If no one knows for sure I'll give them a call on Monday

I am pretty sure they use Beckett right now, but they are trying to work something out for their own encapsulation process in the near future. Not sure when they cut ties with SGC

[chaddurbin]

ahh thank you. i think the head of Beckett grading is a member here, i'll drop him an email. thanks.

I changed the title to reflect that SGC might not do this anymore.

Chad - I have never seen any authentication service state that the encapsulation tomb is acid free.
Am I wrong here?
If the plastic tomb is not acid free I would be concerned about wrapping a plastic tomb, non acid free, around my autograph.

I've never heard that either, and would also be curious to know if they have UV filtering also.

This is only a guess but it would not surprise me if it is just a cheap piece of plastic and certainly not with a UV filter Mike. I would think that if it was acid free and UV filtering they would have let the hobby know.
If I am correct then you are putting your pieces into acidic crap and down the road (it does take time) you will see results that will make you very unhappy.
