Default Why would SGC not grade this card?
Posted By: Jeff Lichtman

I think the grading companies, in order to make some extra money, should allow cards like this just to be slabbed as authentic, period, without a grade. (Do they now?) Here's a card that looks like a 40-50 on the front but has paper loss on the back and it gets the lowest grade which clearly is not indicative of the card's condition on the part that matters not just the most but by far the most - the front. Why for grading purposes is the significance of the back's condition for a card of this age equal to the significance of the front?
