I stayed away from these high graded prewar cards for years (to my detriment!), thinking the hobby would reject them at some point. That has been very wrong. What can you do? They sure look nice……

And very few will notice, and even fewer will care. Whatever may be wrong, is sanitized by the flip. This is the hobby we live in, ruled by card doctors and their facilitators.
