As mentioned elsewhere in our listings our 1933 Goudey consignor had an extremely quality-conscious eye looking for cards that met his exacting standards for overall visual appeal and less concerned with what grading company assessed them - or whether they were graded at all. Two of the cards in his collection were graded by Beckett Vintage Grading both assessed as VG-EX 4: card #121 of Walter Stewart and card #237 of Gus Mancuso.While both cards have strong visual standards we do believe both to be slightly overgraded - while authentic and unaltered the Stewart is subject to surface wear that might see the card more at home in a VG holder and the Mancuso with a similar result for reasons of overall corner wear. All grading companies have different standards and different things that they penalize more than others. Each grading company has different sets of quality guidelines each emphasizing different attributes of a card. In the case of these two the cards meet the grading standards assigned by BVG but seem slightly overgraded by traditional standards.
