How does this card get a numerical grade?

the numerical grades on *all* of the Zeenuts that don't have the coupons attached.

I remember the Joe Jackson card. The card had a rough cut and maybe was oversized. The buyer tried to cut it perfect with a razor blade but it didn't work as planned. Unfortunate slip.

So what's the rest of the story? Did the card get sliced in 2 or something? I miss Paul Harvey and "the rest of the story".

The surgeon cut three edges correctly, but their x-acto knife apparently got hung on one of the edges and ripped the paper about 1/3" and slightly in toward the image. It was ugly, but well-deserved.

I am 99% sure I had this card graded. Over the years I have had various conversations with the SGC guys on grading strips.

IMO this is the biggest problem I have ever had with SGC. They are just not consistant with what gets a grade and what doesn't, but whatever I have stopped trying to figure it out.

Anyway one thing I can say for sure is that this card was not cut recently and was very sharp and clean.
