08/16/2019 PSA 4 41478699 BlowOut →
Prior Grade: PSA 3 cert# 26234097
Card: 1921 Exhibits, Geo. H. "Babe" Ruth.
Alterations: Bleached.
Yellow circles are the common print marks/flaws between both cards.
Blue boxes show the stains removed on the front and back of the card.
This exhibit was purchased by an unknown buyer known as h***h, who proceeded to clean the stains on the front, and completely bleach off the triangular mount stains on the back. Those stains remain barely visible in the "after" scan, and it's not just a case of scanner settings. The scan on the PSA 4 is a bit darker, yet the back is much whiter. I believe only a chemical cleaning agent could have caused such considerable whitening. The job resulted in a 1 grade bump that amounted to a sizeable gain. This is the first exhibit card discovered in this thread.
Sold by PWCC (as a PSA 3) on May 7, 2017 for $2,488 to eBay buyer ID masked as h***h.
Re-sold by PWCC (as a PSA 4) on October 14, 2018 for $5,327.77.
Gain: $2,839.77
