    Might have been a present from a loved one or first card they ever owned.

    My guess is that it was from a childhood collection and the owner just wanted to protect what was left of it.

    If it was sentimental why is he selling the darn thing then. I was floored when I saw it up for auction.

    it will soon have sentimental value to someone else who regrettably used their other Van Brocklin rookie to wax the car.

    Because it's a HOF rookie card and with SGC it could very well be the highest ever graded.

    Too true; taking a tour through the pop reports can be a real eye-opener. I don't know what would possess someone to grade commons from the 1994 Topps Traded set, but to each his own.

    He wasn't sure if this was a RC or not and needed the SCG label that included the word "Rookie" to confirm his suspicions.

    At least it will distinguish between a authentic card and a fake made to look old.

    an authentic gets you zero registry points and a 1 well 1.

    That's the kind of card you keep raw and carry around with you
    in a back pants pocket like some of us did when we were dumb kids.
    The condition couldn't get any worse.
