Can someone tell me why this is a PSA 2?

Not from those photo's. Minor paper loss on back maybe? Creasing could be a problem but it doesn't look like it from the photos. I found the auction and even with a bigger back photo it looks real clean. Maybe a minor pinhole? I don't see one though. Usually that would sink it to a PSA 1 holder but with this card looking so clean otherwise maybe it got a bump up to a 2. Good looking PSA 2 and a tough card.

Yes, because PSA obviously thought it was better than a 1, but not good enough for a 3

not from that distance, it looks really nice from there though, they need a scanner like i do lol-i need to make room for one around here really bad nice 2,light crease maybe, a few 55 bowmans isent in that i thought were great came back 3s because of light creases

Who cares about the grade...... Very nice looking card

I would guess there is some type of problem on the front of the card. You have to wonder why the seller would take a crappy pic of the front of the card, but a much better (not great) pic of the back of the card??? Maybe minor paper loss somewhere?

favrefan,
still a nice piece of history from a beautiful set. i would love to have that set in PSA 2.

got a picture of another one? something looks weird on the bottom front of the card to me (yellowish spot just to the left of center)

I will let you know what the issue is when it arrives at my house....

Is there something on the front right below the holder's elbow, or is that glare from the case? Maybe that's why it's a PSA 2.

yankeeno7 · December 10, 2007 6:21AM

maybe spider creases throughout the card

Looks like a water stain.

Davemri · December 10, 2007 11:05AM

Do you see water damage or is that a guess? Could be a good guess..

i enlarged it a little on my computer, it almost looks like someone may have drawn a line around the kickers leg.
Great looking card nonetheless.

Now why would I guess? Between his elbow and thigh, blow the pic up because something is there. I see a set of two almost cirular dots. Probably why it's such a bad pic of the card.

I have a 48 J Robby rookie that looks like a 5 that is in a 2 holder. The reason? A crease that was spooned out. I would think this card has the same 'problem'

Well here are some better scans now in hand. The only thing I can see are what looks like very small specks of glue on the back. I still think it's worhy of a higher grade..

jimq112 · December 13, 2007 7:56AM

Looks great! Nicer corners than my 7 for sure. Are you sure there's no minor paper loss on the back?

Looks like a nice buy!
