Similar to this one I have - stunning, but a flaw.

Exactly I don't see how that card is a 2.5

It is Amazing (And the Issue is on the Back not the Front).

I have seen Other 2.5 Cards that look like They Got Ran Over By a Car (On Both Sides).

Two great cards, especially that WaJo, wow Jon - is there any paper loss at the bottom where there was never any writing?

Both have been glued into an album at one time, hence the back damage and grades.

No real paper loss on the back. Just some glue residue.

Scott - agreed. The grade is the technical grade for the card. However, I'd take 2.5s that look like the WaJo all day long.

The grade is technically correct. Practically speaking, IMO this is one of the nicest looking examples out there, and I would rather own this over many higher graded examples out there.

I once owned a Ernie Banks ROOKIE with the same issue. I sent it in to PSA thinking it would grade at least a 5.5 or 6, but came back a PSA 2. I was soooooo mad.

I emailed some graders and they said that since some tape/glue residue was on the card that the highest grade it would receive would be a 2.

Buy the card and not the grade. Buy cards that present well.
