What's up with the ginormous SGC holder for your Felix Mendelssohn Hooper??

I sold a Cobb T5 to a mostly-lurker on the board circa 2002 or so. It is not the one pictured here nor is it Leon's, so there's gotta be three. Pretty sure he still has it. Condition might be described as about VG and slightly worse than the pictured one. Regular mount......

Was thinking the same, looks better raw.

That is quite a bit bigger than my Mendelsohn SGC holders. Hope it keeps the card in place better.

My guess is because it was onsite grading at a show, and they didn't have all of their holder sizes onsite. Had I sent the card into SGC for grading, I would've gotten the regular size holder. Being at the show, maybe they didn't have every size available?

I'm not positive if that's the reason, but I didn't ask, and the card seemed stable in its holder, so I'm OK with it...

I won these in eBay auctions tonight - look forward to getting them. These are the first graded examples I will have. Does SGC or PSA grade these? Not thinking of crossing them, just wondering how the gaskets and cases match up with each other.

Mike, nice m101-2s. As far as I am aware, only Beckett has holders large enough for these.

It's not a new acquisition, but with the T210 posted above this real photo postcard seems worth adding to the mix so folks can view the images together.

Wow. I hate you, too. Just kidding, just kidding. That is awesome. I am dumb struck. Beautiful, thanks for sharing.

Brian, nice Cecil Travis pickup. But, I'm stumped - what is it?
