I was out when Sean left the voice mail but my understanding is yes they are visible in person but not from a scan. Don't hold my feet to the fire but I am pretty sure he said they are visible in person.

Roger that brother.........thanks Leon! I always enjoy talking with Sean and Earl. I still believe they have the best customer service out there!

Yes, if they put a green border back on it might be acceptable even with new typeface etc.

Not liking the new labels at all...have to agree with the other 99% of collectors here. They look like something that was designed and printed quickly, without much thought given to proper aesthetics or the value of brand-name recognition. SGC really should have gotten more customer feedback before going forward with this.

You have to wonder, whose idea was this, and who approved it and why? Maybe someone thought the simple look was cool, I don't know. But as has been said they look so much like the flips of the joke grading services.

I was going to go with the more politically correct "the new flips look amateurish," but I'll echo what Pete said.

If they had a consultant design that for them...hmmmmmmm.
