Interesting observation in researching Moser's PSA submission list cert numbers.
The Feller card that I just posted is #10872191. The Rizzuto card posted above that is #10872695. These are the cert numbers between those two cards: 10872692 - 1937 O-PEE-CHEE Baldy Northcutt #156 - PSA 4 10872693 - 1937 O-PEE-CHEE Gus Marker #173 - PSA 6 10872694 - 1937 O-PEE-CHEE Bill McKenzie #151 - PSA 4 All three cards have no sale record in their current cert number. All three cards have no prior graded card purchase by whitman111 (Moser). All three cards reside in a PSA Set Registry of someone named ricky. Once outed as a card doctor, the whitman111 Ebay ID was changed to ricky-leo. It could just be a coincidence.

Over roughly the last three years, there have been 25 of the 1957 Topps Clemente that have sold in PSA9 (according to VCP). I wonder how many have been legit? No fewer than eight were auctioned by PWCC. And all but one of the 25 were sold through some sort of auction house, where the seller's ID was masked. I realize auction houses can be an attractive and convenient option for big $$$ cards, but I'd love to see a list of consignors for those 25 cards. I bet we'd see some familiar names.
The vast majority also reside in a fairly recent PSA slab (granted, some were probably re-holdered). Who knew there was a warehouse find of pristine 1957 Topps cases in recent years? ![]() Quote:

Fwiw, Heritage will allow this feature on many lots organically, and has nothing to do with the buyers request to move the card.

One of the facts lost in all the PWCC madness of the past few months is that the '52 Topps Mantle card that launched this thread was altered sometime between the OP's photo of the card in raw shape and Heritage's possession of the card the first time it was graded. That was when the alterations were made. Heritage's role in this scandal has yet to be fully explored.

This card was purchased by the whitman111 Ebay account on August 19, 2018. The card was trimmed, graded and sold by PWCC on November, 08, 2018. The trimming scandal broke in April and Gary Moser was outed in early May and the FBI became involved in July. This same trimmed card was auctioned off again and sold by PWCC on August 26, 2019.

So this card sold $1K less the second time around, a huge percentage decrease. One could speculate that BODA contributed to the decline.

The conclusion I would draw from this is that PWCC continues to be less than vigilant. They know where the bodies are buried, so to speak. I'm assuming they have a list of PSA serial numbers of cards submitted by outed card doctors. I wouldn't think this would terribly difficult to check. Perhaps they could put an "originally consigned by an outed card doctor" sticker on the back of the card, not unlike their "premium quality" stickers. It's also interesting that the Bowman Snider went for half as much the second go around as a PSA8. Perhaps people are waking up, or maybe this is just an anomaly. |

That card should have never got past PSA. The way the ink is all broken up on the lettering is a dead giveaway for bleaching/chemical treatment. Whoever graded it has zero knowledge about cards from that era.

Shouldn't the first 1950 Bowman Snider have been a PSA 7 ST?
Anyhow, another nice card has beeen forever ruined. Would have loved to have owned the original card. Wouldn't touch the PSA 8 at any price. |
