Can a “Print Dot” Be cleaned on my 1988 MJ Card?

I am thinking about grading this one but can these stubborn print dots be removed? I know it’s common for this year.
Thanks for any advice you have.

    print dots are caused by some sort of contaminant during printing. they can't be removed. Filled in, sure. But then, noone wants an altered card.

    Looking to have some custom cuts or plain custom cards built? PM me.

    ah, so it basically gives it a little character :) Does the print dots affect the grade much?

    Post a scan if you want a good answer.

    can you wash off a freckle?

    I guess not, I just didn't know if it was permanent or not. I will post the picture later when I am home.
    Thanks!

    there’s your answer! sure, you can remove a freckle. but the process would not be natural and involve altering your skin. 😉

    Sorry, it was the PIPPEN. Thoughts about grading?

    looks like the pippen has a fisheye, a print dot and plaqued by print defect. not worth grading, imo.

    Ok thanks Blurry! Too bad.

    doesn’t mean it’s not a solid card. definitely not worthless, by any means.

    A PSA 7 goes for about $40.00. Print issues on this card are severe. The Jordan in a 7 is about a $70.00 card.
