"Still, the questions surrounding the card never went away, and in a 2005 interview, PSA grader Bill Hughes, a member of the team that inspected the Gretzky T206 Wagner, admitted he knew the card had been cut from a sheet when he graded the card.

“We were aware of that when the card came to PSA,” he is quoted as saying in “The Card.” “This particular card was obviously cut…The card is so outstanding, it would have been sacreligious to call that card trimmed and completely devalue it.”"

God I love grading.

Well, what is surprising is that Hughes would actually admit this in a public fashion.

I still think eventually this card will fall flat on its face with everything surrounding it. It may be 20 years from now....but I see it eventually falling off the mountain.

As much as I would love to see this card knocked off its pedastal, it won't. There is too much money involved. Unless it's bought by someone that wants to truly expose the card for it is, crack it out and submit it to SGC, the card will remain what it is. I don't think there is anyone out there willing to take a $1m hit to expose the card.
