What do you think - T206 Young on eBay

Obviously 1st issue is Grade/Grading Co - I think probably a 4 in PSA Slab?

Any thoughts other than that?

Card appears to be authentic. Over the years I have cross-graded SCD cards to PSA in T206's, and a majority of them came back trimmed. The top edge on this card appears to be either diamond cut or possibly altered. It's hard to tell because of the angle of the scan.

The Cy Young looks good, but terrible holders---maybe a psa 4--nicely centered--I never heard of the grading company.

Seem to recall a thread here discussing SCD, Sports collection Digest Red labels, and SCD ( Sports Cards DIRECT) Blue labels. Something along the lines of the Red Labeled Company being bought out by Blue Labeled one. Thus S C Direct.

I've seen claims that SCD bought out Sports Collectors Digest but in this old
discussion from 2005 the person in the third post from the bottom says he
called both company's and Sports Collectors Digest said they didn't sell to them.

I purchased this Sports Collectors Digest card 15 years ago in the
holder. It might be slightly over graded (should probably be a 3) but I don't
think it has been altered.

I tend to believe the poster that said there is no affiliation. If they bought out
the original SCD why wouldn't they be using holders made for t206's that
holder on the Young is terrible.
