This is another N300 Mayo card sold through PWCC Auctions that features recoloring. On the front there has been a mark removed, which is highlighted in green. That mark was the reason for the original MK, or mark, qualifier. This removal is a gray area, and I would not have posted this card were this the only problem.
However, the card doctor decided to recolor some of the chipping and fraying areas on the black-colored back, which is evident especially on the top and left edges of the card. Once again, this is a big-time miss by PSA and a big-time fraud on the part of the card doctor. Red circles on the front show marks unique to this card, proving both the PSA 4 MK and PSA 5 are the same. The tip for this card came in from the same prewar collector who found the N300 Anson.
To my knowledge, this is the first time the PWCC pre-war doctor has bought from Memory Lane Inc. Finally, it should be noted that the PSA 5 example sold through PWCC does not appear in the PWCC Auction Archive (it was uncovered using WorthPoint). Why is that, PWCC?
