Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Babe and Mgr. Huggins [Green Tint] #137 sells for $972 against $19.00 raw: a $953 spread, 51× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($883) clears the raw price after an economy-tier ~$25 fee, so a near-miss still comes out ahead. Centering is the usual reason a clean copy misses the 10 — measure it before you submit.
