I just put "Slab all cards if Authentic" at the bottom of my order form.

I'm a little more methodical

I write

"If unable to receive a numerical grade, please holder as authentic"

I might have done that the second time I subbed the Mantle but it didn't work. Do you think that a call prior to submission would help?

No, just put a shipping hold on your order and check when the grades pop. Then confirm it got slabbed before removing the hold.

I would guess they determined the hard erasure by Babe’s eyes was sufficient enough to deem the card altered. Just my 2 cents.

That could be as well. Somehow I lost my loupe and can't get a good look at that part with my old eyes. That being said, that wouldn't stop it from being able to slab it "Authentic Altered", would it?

I don’t believe so as long as PSA gave no indication that the authenticity was in question.

It is possible the card has the washed out colors from bleaching but why would anyone do that? It's more likely the card was kept on display and the sun faded the colors. I've seen it quite a few times over the years. But that wouldn't or shouldn't get it an altered.

Now it could just be me, but in the upper left corner and/or on the right edge (where the crease goes off the card) it looks like there might be some white added. That would get you an altered.
