A BOB HOOPER from the 1953 TOPPS set, card #84. This is a great addition to any CLEVELAND INDIANS collection.
Graded by Mint Condition: 4
The card is well-preserved for its era, featuring strong surface integrity and respectable corners. However, the grade is primarily constrained by the significant horizontal centering shift on the front.
Centering: 3 / 10
The front has a significant left-heavy horizontal centering shift, though a sliver of border remains visible.
Corners: 7 / 10
Front: The Top Left and Top Right corners show minor touches of wear and slight softening. The bottom corners appear sharper. Back: Moderate whitening is visible on the Top Right and Bottom Right corners, consistent with the age of the card.
Edges: 8 / 10
Front: Minor chipping and light fraying are visible along the top and left edges. Back: The edges show some light age-related wear and minor roughness along the top border.
Surface: 9 / 10
Front: The front surface is clean with excellent color preservation and no signs of creasing or significant scratching. Back: The reverse surface is well-preserved. A clean collector autograph in red ink is present, which does not detract from the grade.
