Default Anyone dislike slabs for horizontal cards??

I'm slowly working on the T202 set but I can't stand the labeling on the slabs being on the side of the card instead of above it. I'm debating just busting the cards out and doing it raw. Anyone else feel this way? Any hope SGC or PSA may change this in the future?

Not that I dislike them, but I think that would be a great idea!

I heard that PSA is going to be coming out with horizontal slabs to force everyone to reslab their horizontal cards

I recently told an OCD woman, "You could never live with me. I'm messy."

Busting this horizontal card would only do half the trick for you.

On a serious note, it doesn't bother me at all, I think it would look weird to do it differently.

Haha, I actually have that card is a SGC slab and it drives me nuts! One of my favorite cards though. Don't mind the backs at all I just hate how the fronts display with them.

Would this card go in a vertical or horizontal holder?

That card is just weird. I had to go look on COMC to see if it was a real card.

I am not a big fan of the horizontal cards besides the 55 Bowmans.
