I just took the (sideways) pics posted by someone else and righted them and used basic photoshop filters to make 'em a bit sharper. Unfortunately, I'm stuck at home, a million miles away from the show.

LOL to the thread replies and the images posted.

To adequately compare these two cards they would need to be and deserve to be viewed under the same light or if by an image, done from the same scanner with identical settings. Images pulled from the net or grainy horizontal cellphone pics are almost as great as someone drawing a picture of the two cards.

Am I the only one that thinks the 9.5 is the nicest one??

No you're not.

From the images provided, I like the 9.5 best too. But as stated above... unless they are photographed together and with the same light, it's not exactly "apples to apples".

Plus 1 agree I think the 9.5 looked better in person than the 10 and both locations so packed it was hard to get clean picture in addiction the lighting in each area was not the same

But I am splitting hairs they were both gorgeous and either would be a dream card to have

Is it me, or does the DBacks PSA 10 Mantle have a slight tilt to it? It looks like the left border is slightly wider toward the bottom than it is at the top. Or am I imagining this?
