Broken News: The Bill Mastro Honus Wagner Card Trimming

In the wake of the news regarding Bill Mastro and the t206 Honus Wagner card, I would like to issue the following statement: 

I have an admission of my own.  I am also guilty of altering a card to increase the value.

1986 Topps #453 Steve Jeltz (RC - altered)

Yes I am guilty of altering the above Steve Jeltz card to sell it at a profilt. The dime I recieved for the card is far far more than it was worth in the original condition.

In fact the windfall I gained from the exchnage was likely far greater (percentage wise) than the amount Mr Mastro profitted from the sale of the T206 Wagner card. 

I appologize to my family, friends, and the fans for the embarassment and hardship that I may have caused them.

    You probably should have given him a nosejob while you were at it.
