Default B4 and after pics of card restoration

Do you think that auction houses should post before and after scans of a card that has been restored or reconstructed?

I saw the short video of Doug Allen describing a T206 Wagner that went through a restoration process and I couldn't help but to think it would have been nice for him to have shown a before and after picture of the card. It would have been the best explanation available.

Hi Fred,

With the current Legendary Auction T-206 Wagner, the images for the lot show the card as it is now (some restoration removed, in PSA A holder) and images of the card when it was in its previous restored state. So this allows you to see how it changed to its latest appearance.

As an answer to your general question, yes - if they have before/after, I'd like to see it as a potential bidder.

Cheers,
Blair
