[Need help] Early sealed green/red handkerchiefs with sticker (95/96/97?)

[orannge]

Dear fellow collectors,

I recently purchased this wonderful item, which has not yet arrived but should be here soon. It appears to contain two handkerchiefs, one of which features Starmie. Additionally, there is a nice sticker showing different Pokémon.

Would you consider opening the packaging to have the sticker graded or sealed?

What do you think about the 1995 copyright? It seems to be the same as with Topsun’s 1995 copyright stamp, doesn’t it?

Best,
orannge

Edit: Found an older post talking about the handkerchiefs, too. The sticker is not in the same place and seems to be “glued” to the handkerchief in this older post. In the images I posted it seems the sticker is not connected to the fabric though and could be removed. It also seems there may be two stickers inside judging from the older post.

Interesting post and what an odd, and cool item.

Why do you want to grade the sticker? Personally, I’m not someone to ask about grading preference.

Thank you. I don’t want to grade it; I just like them sealed in a slab—that’s a quirk of mine.

My girlfriend - who does not share my passion for collecting, to put it mildly - says she thinks it’s horrible to seal cards, toys, and other stuff. She thinks it drains the life out of those items—I strongly disagree though.

I feel incredibly comfortable knowing the item is safely sealed away, and I can touch and move it without fear of damaging it. That was the intention behind my question.
