hmmm....

your other post in the last five years talked about your concern about cards in bogus psa flips (mantle, jordan, brady). you asked if the board wanted to see the bogus flip jordan and brady psa 10s you were recently offered. not making any judgements, interpretations, etc...just recounting known facts.

rather than filling in all of the contextual information for these two cards which many will understandably find questionable in any situation, the best way to validate anything is submit it to a third party grader and if it's good enough for them it will be good enough for many on the board. there is a cottage industry of vintage fakes that if given unclear pictures, or not having the card in hand, look passably vintage (see etsy for many examples). people obviously want to believe but have been burned many times before, so would love to see these cards with an A or numerical grade if that time comes.
