Does PSA Grade Non-sports (historical) photos?

Hi all, seeing all the great sports photos graded (The Ty Cobb sliding into base is simply incredible), i was curious if they did non sports photos?

I was gifted 4 photos a few years back, developed directly from the original negatives that are now in the library of Congress. They are:
Abraham Lincoln
Ulysses Grant
George Custer
Robert E. Lee

Would PSA Do these or would they be sent back? Thanks!

    I would love to see these! I was always fascinated by the civil war. Such a dark time for our country but we came out much better because of it.

    Yes, they do non-sports photos too... Can you post scans of them, front and back?

    Thx.

    I cant even tell what's happening in that Marilyn Monroe picture. Is she seeking higher ground to escape lecherous men? One seems to have a hold of her shoe.

    Run Marilyn, run!!

    Update: I’m still looking for the photos, but found online what they are, if memory serves correct:

    Lincoln:

    Grant:

    I can’t quite recall the Lee and Custer, (it’s been 5+ years since we’ve had them out lol) so I don’t want to post what I think they are. I’ve been tearing the house apart trying to find them, and when I do I’ll scan and post. Thanks!
