A BOB NIEMAN from the 1961 TOPPS set, card #178. This is a great addition to any ST. LOUIS CARDINALS collection.
Graded by Mint Condition: 8
This 1961 Topps Bob Nieman is a high-grade example with excellent eye appeal. The front centering is very good for the issue, and the surface is remarkably well-preserved. Minor corner softening on the bottom left and a shift on the reverse prevent a higher assessment, but it remains a very sharp card overall.
Centering: 9 / 10
Front: Centering on the front is strong, with a minor bias toward the right border. Back: The back exhibits a noticeable shift toward the left edge.
Corners: 8 / 10
Front: The Bottom Left corner shows a very minor touch of wear. The other three corners remain sharp and well-defined. Back: The Bottom Left corner on the reverse shows slight whitening and minor softening.
Edges: 8 / 10
The right edge on the back shows a slight rough cut, which is a common characteristic of vintage printing and cutting processes.
Surface: 9 / 10
The back surface is clean with only very minor print spotting typical for the card stock of this era.
