A HAL TROSKY from the 1940 PLAY BALL set, card #50. This is a great addition to any CLEVELAND INDIANS collection.
Graded by Mint Condition: 5
This card presents in mid-grade condition for its age. While the centering and surfaces are quite strong for a 1940 issue, the grade is primarily limited by the moderate rounding and softening across all four corners.
Centering: 7 / 10
A moderate left-heavy horizontal shift is present, while the top and bottom borders are exceptionally well-balanced.
Corners: 4 / 10
Front: All four corners exhibit moderate rounding and visible whitening consistent with handled vintage stock. Back: The corners on the reverse show softening and rounding that matches the wear seen on the front.
Edges: 8 / 10
Front: Minor chipping and natural roughness are visible along the edges, typical for this era. Back: The edges on the back show light shelf wear but remain structurally sound.
Surface: 7 / 10
A small dark spot is present near the left-center edge, and the card shows light, natural age-toning.
