My two cents: I now look for vintage cards with surface wrinkles because:
1) they are affordable because they are technically lower grade 2) they have outstanding eye appeal Here is my 1952 Bowman Willie Mays that is a PSA 2….that looks like a PSA 8. It has near perfect centering (which is almost an impossibility with that card), razor sharp edges and corners, snow white borders, and flawless color/registration. The only issue is three light surface wrinkles on the front that you can’t see 75% of the time. Buy the card, not the holder! Sorry they are sideways…. Last edited by Scocs; 10-26-2023 at 08:10 AM.

This one has a tiny wrinkle/crease between the edge and border about halfway up the left side.
When I asked about the grade a few years ago, that and a tiny flake of paper loss on the top right corner - tiny, like if the card had typical 4 corner wear it would have more missing - was all that kept it from a much better grade. Last edited by steve B; 10-26-2023 at 08:10 AM. Reason: forgot pic

That is the best looking '2' I have ever seen. Downright criminal.
