A BURT HOOTON from the 1972 TOPPS set, card #61. This is a great addition to any CHICAGO CUBS collection.
Graded by Mint Condition: 8
This is a high-grade specimen with exceptional corner and edge sharpness for a vintage issue. While the physical condition of the stock and surface is near-perfect, the final grade is primarily constrained by the centering, most notably the significant right-side shift on the back.
Centering: 7 / 10
Front: The front centering is shifted toward the left edge, though it remains within respectable limits for the era. Back: The reverse side shows a significant shift toward the right edge.
Corners: 10 / 10
Front: All four corners on the front are exceptionally sharp and well-defined, showing no visible wear or whitening. Back: The reverse corners maintain excellent sharpness and integrity.
Edges: 10 / 10
Front: The edges are clean and straight with no visible chipping or roughness. Back: The reverse edges are smooth and free of significant factory burrs or shelf wear.
Surface: 10 / 10
Front: The surface is remarkably clean with vibrant colors and no visible scratches or print defects. Back: The gray card stock on the back is well-preserved with no staining or marks.
