Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A Grade 9.5 Tigers VS Reds [1940] #37 sells for $61.00 against $10.00 raw: a $51.00 spread, 6.1× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($55.00) 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.
