The Johnson is very nice. Great card.

I have a couple of thoughts on Bancroft.

The PSA pop report reads: 1921 Wool's American-Maid Bread-Hand Cut(No Longer Grade/Authentic)

I take that to mean this is a now defunct slab - an admitted mistake of a grader at the earlier days of PSA. To me, it looks like someone at Wool's Bread took an ink stamp and marked the backs of a bunch of them to advertise the company as you can see the outline of the stamp on the Johnson shown above.

I am also doubting the grade would hold up - it appears to have back damage.

My guess is that if it was resubmitted today it would be catalogued as a W551 and would be graded 1-2 MK. Your card may have value to anyone who collects retired slabs or wants to add to their backstamp collection. It's an interesting card. Definitely unique and has a story. Good luck your cards.
