When a strip card looks this good there is no reason it shouldn’t have a grade IMHO.

Given what's known (some) and unknown (a lot) for strip cards, it'd be great to know that grading companies were willing to either push ahead with new research or pick up what's been published elsewhere. Odd to still be using info on flips that is now 2-3 decades old, whether or not they add a number. :-)

I've been dinged with AUTH from PSA for having too much border on a hand cut card before...that's always been interesting.
Here's a recent submission with what I thought might be too little border. I was hoping for a 1, wouldn't have been shocked at AUTH, and ended up getting a 1.5. Also, PSA treats these as hand cut whether one believes they were a hand cut set or not. Also also, PSA doesn't note the incorrect spelling of Roger(s) on the bottom of the flip like they generally do on other cards...probably because they're using the bottom line of the flip for other info.

Being that it made it over 100 years in this form, I will not be slicing the sides of the below card to perpendicularity, and definitely will not snip off the bonus 'ear' on the right border.

PSA is tougher than SGC on numerical grades for strip cards . I acquired several lots. Both companies give out A's if they dont neasure so undersized examples I did not send in. If they are going to get an A or even a 1 it's not really worth paying SGC 15.00 or PSA even more. I saved the nicest cards for PSA and they were graded harshly. SGC gave me better grades . In general I prefer PSA but on W Cards SGC does a better job and always have
