Opinions on this Bock Hooker T206
I won this card at auction from gregmorris, who I usually think is pretty much spot on in his grading of raw. This card was listed as "low grade (filler) in terms of condition. Given that Hooker is a SL and a tough card, I was happy to get it for around $100 anyway, because I knew I'd need this one eventually.
I expected to find wrinkles or issues with the card when it arrived, however, I put it under my black light and saw no hints of recoloring, and beyond just a small ding in the top right front corner, the card looks like its in excellent shape. Edges are nice, centering is decent, color on the front is nice, and the back is clean with no paper loss.
So, am I missing something here? Did he just miscategorize the card as low grade? I assume if they thought it was trimmed, they'd have put that in the title.
Thoughts?
