Since the Catalogs are gone the best way to boost a card value is recognition by PSA so it becomes needed by master collectors

PSA used to rely on the Catalogs, print or on line, to recognize variations. The road to hobby recognition is just a little more chaotic these days.

The Nen has already obtained a niche hobby following. Glad I got one early. If Howard can get PSA to recognize the Nen it will be sought after by master as well as niche collectors and the value will go up more.

I know you have a great assortment of tough variations/variants in your collection. If we have a difference in this area I am not sure what it involves

Al, I was just having a bit of a laugh. Thought it was obvious. If the Nen is 'officially' recognized, then I sadly won't be able to afford it anymore, because prices will skyrocket. That's all.

I'm just an enthusiast but offer that Topps was pumping out a TON of different products in 1967 and quality control (such as it was) may have been wanting at certain points. That's a guess though, I'm not sure how much work was put into examining each press run once the proofs were agreed. A lot of these type variants seem to be the result of loose elements affecting image quality during the printing stage.

Darren� it probably was obvious to everyone but me

. The older I get the slower I process.
