T206 Frank Delehanty

With the wrinkle, it wouldn't get higher than a 3.5-4... And that assumes it's not trimmed (and my guess is that it is).

Yeah, it's going to get an "A" most likely. A "3" if you're lucky. Not much chance of recouping your $60

Hi Jeff -

I think Erick is right - the card appears to be trimmed from the scan provided (bottom edge looks pretty wavy).

Nice Delehanty nonetheless!

You have better eyes than I do. I had to really blow up the scan to see what you are talking about. I would have figured the top would have been trimmed due to the sharper corners, but blown up it shows some chipping that the forum article talked about.

Ah well, live and learn. I guess I won't be quitting my day job to sell cards. Thank you all for commenting.

Looks ok to me. Hard to tell from a scan, even a decent one.

The crease I think would limit it to a 40/3 maybe a bit less. (maybe a 50 if you're lucky.) Without the crease it would probably do well enough to make it worth sending in under the current special -55, maybe 60.

It's a nice looking card. I think you'll have trouble with a quick flip, but not in a few years. 5-10 maybe. Maybe quicker depending on the economy.

Thanks for responding. I did compare it's size to a well-loved T206 at the show and it looked to be the same size. I just measured it here and it comes in spot on at 1 7/16" x 2 5/8". As far as grading, it looks like a 3.5 to 4 won't generate any great windfall for me. I guess I'll just keep it. There are worse outcomes, right?

They can measure the proper size but still be trimmed. I also agree with Erick.
