It would be great if this story makes it on the National Nightly News casts or the prime time big 3 cable News Stations Wednesday night before the National.

How many collectors and investors are going to continue to be ignorant to PSA’s ability to accurately grade cards ?

Doesn't feel like a nightly news story. It's a long shot, but maybe 60 Minutes.

Originally, the movie was called "4.5"...

But then the Moser/PWCC film company got a hold of the project and used all sorts of filters and editing in post-production to turn her into something to look at...

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

Excellent!

And I think Shallow Hal would agree. Rumor has it that he's now a grader for PSA.

(Hopefully someone here remembers that movie )
