I was quite interested in this post and noticed no response.

I went to the PSA registry and looked at the date ranges and found all three groups.

For the Group I & II, grades are only "Authentic". I would suppose this is due to the photo being attached to the cardboard backing. None were for sale, so I was unable to determine when they were graded.

The Group III, due to the border being part of the photo, are basically cards. These had numerical grades. Like the Beliveau, all are new flips, so they have been graded recently. I would assume that the Group I & II are also newly graded based on the low number of slabbed photos. It appears that most of the are currently for sale. While the Beliveau is being auctioned through PWCC, the rest all seem to be from 4SC. Could it be possible that 4SC's is test auctioning a card via PWCC? That would be interesting to know.
