Generally speaking, I presume that most auction participants would not need to be reminded that Ty Cobb or Mickey Mantle, for example, were actually skilled ballplayers, so I don't know why the descriptions wax poetically about HOF stats. I do see value, however, with describing the provenance of more rare issues, as Heritage did with Leon's collection.

Additionally, I tend to call BS when every single description claims that at least one facet of the card is "worthy of a higher grade." Just ONCE, I'd love to read a description that says something like, "Generously graded a PSA 5 by PSA, the rounded corners and 65/35 centering appear worthy of a VG/EX assessment."
