Well, and the comments on the imgur page are from 2016, which makes checking the archives at least logical. =)

Technically yes, though there are some collectors (myself included) who have a fondness for back stamps. Stickers, not so much. But in a purely technical sense, yes, a stamp or sticker generally reduces the value of a card.
With this card, I'm not sure it matters a ton. It will get reasonable money for an "Authentic" grade.
Speaking of stamps, I don't have any in my collection with the name that's stamped on several of yours. I'd love to pick one up if the time comes that you start piecing out the collection.
