PSA Announces Custom Card Encapsulation Service

SportsModerator2

Since 1991, PSA has helped authenticate, grade and preserve millions of trading cards and other collectibles. Many of them are the most valuable of their kind in the world. Now, for the first time, PSA can help you celebrate the important personal events and people in your life by placing your specially designed trading cards or photos in our protective holder with a special label of your choosing.

If you don't already have personally designed trading cards, www.MyTradingCards.com is a web site that lets you create personalized trading cards by uploading pictures and customizing them any way you want. From youth sports to birthdays, graduations to weddings, the possibilities are endless. PSA can encapsulate your special trading cards in our sonically sealed protective holder, and you get to customize the label to commemorate the special event. What better way to document and preserve a special person or moment than by creating a unique trading card and encapsulating it to ensure longevity?

For more information on how to create your own trading cards, visit www.MyTradingCards.com or call (888) 666-0098.

Not only can PSA encapsulate your special trading cards, but also photos of various sizes. Preserve any special photo and cherish it forever by protecting it in our holder. Sizes are limited, so please contact Customer Service for further information.

A special green label will be used for the description on your holder. This allows you to personalize the label with the specific information you choose. You have four lines to work with, with a maximum of 29 characters per line. To take advantage of this fun service, contact PSA Customer Service at (800) 325-1121.

This is actually a pretty cool idea! I have a friend who participates in the Cleveland Indians Fantasy Camp every year, and he always gives me a card from that year's camp. I always tease him that I'm going to send them in to PSA. Now I can!

Is this going to be like a PRO grading service? Everything gets a 10. Bill that hunter is a little to much OC for a 10. JK .. Good idea!!

Very cool and a good marketing idea in my opinion - should help to spur card collector interest in young people which of course is the future growth of the hobby.

I'm not sure about the question you are asking regarding the "modern format".

If it is in regards to the holder sizes we will use, this service will be available for all our holders, tallboys, supersized, T3's.
