A DON LENHARDT from the 1954 TOPPS set, card #157. This is a great addition to any BALTIMORE ORIOLES collection.
Graded by Mint Condition: 4
This vintage card presents well with high-eye appeal due to its excellent centering. However, the final condition is limited by the heavy rounding and wear present on all four corners and moderate chipping along the edges.
Centering: 9 / 10
The front horizontal centering shows a very slight preference toward the right side, while vertical alignment is centered.
Corners: 3 / 10

Surface: 7 / 10
Front: The surface is generally well-preserved with vibrant colors, though some light age-toning and faint surface scratches are visible upon close inspection. Back: The back surface shows some natural browning of the paper stock and minor print snow, typical of this vintage.
