My guess, assuming it is the same card, is that whatever is being done to these cards isn't leaving much behind to detect.

Maybe, although I'm guessing that card -- given the disparity in values these days between holders -- made a trip to PSA first.

That Shoeless Joe card was a $22,000 card before work was done on it -- and posters in the Musial thread on here were seriously trying to claim that no one would have the balls to alter a $3,000 card?

Yah when you've made millions 22K is just a wager you can well afford to lose.

In the past...when speaking to people who are not in tune to this hobby who may be pickers...estate liquidators...pawn shop owners...buyers/sellers of silver/gold, etc. These people almost always felt that if PSA says this...or that...then it's fact.

And these people helped to cause the surge in valuations of many cards.

Now and in the near future when all these lay-people hear that PSA as well as the other TPG'ers cannot even tell if a card has been altered...that will eliminate many from even participating in the hobby.

Prices will plummet...investors will run for the hills. When it's all said and done all that will be left are the collectors.
