I've long known (and opined at Net54) that many high grade cards in holders are altered and that it was foolish to spend long-term big money on them.

But I've never had an interest in that area, and am like many on Net54 who appreciate some honest signs of old age to a card.

I remember I had a 1933 Goudey Gehringer that was in such bad shape that I called it "The Devil's beer coaster."
