Nice Work however IMO you should carry a copy of the Parade or local rules with you. The dust IMO is .2 max the sticker you shouldn't have been dinged for. They nearly all do it and it is original. It isn't torn only lifting. I would have dinged you for the dust but the sticker is a Judge who should go back to Concours 101 and study. Or just not be such an arse. It reminds me of the time I got dinged for the most minimal surface corrosion on some original hardware. It is only noticeable and slightly so in direct sunlight. I got dinged .5 for each piece of hardware despite being told in the judges meeting that we combine things like this and a max of .2 deduction per every 3 instances. I find very few judges know what they are doing or listen to the lead judge these days.
Did you discuss it with the lead judge? If so what did they he/she say?
So this was one of a few I received a .5 deduction for. Some judges play games so others might win or they just have no clue. This isn't parade and it isn't down to best in show.
