A FELIPE ALOU from the 1972 TOPPS set, card #263. This is a great addition to any NEW YORK YANKEES collection.
Graded by Mint Condition: 9
This is an exceptional example of a 1972 Topps card. It boasts sharp corners, crisp edges, and a flawless surface on both sides. While the front centering shows a minor shift toward the top and right, it is typical for the era and does not detract from the card's overall high-end visual appeal. The slight vertical shift on the reverse is also common and has no impact on the final assessment.
Centering: 9 / 10
Front: The front displays a slight shift toward the top right corner, while remaining well-centered for this vintage issue. Back: The reverse side shows a significant vertical shift toward the top edge, though it remains within acceptable limits for the era.
Corners: 10 / 10
