A BOB SMITH from the 1959 TOPPS set, card #83. This is a great addition to any PITTSBURGH PIRATES collection.
Graded by Mint Condition: 7
This is a high-grade vintage example characterized by elite centering that far exceeds typical standards for the 1959 issue. While the surface and edges are nearly pristine, minor touches of wear on the corners keep the card from a higher tier.
Centering: 9 / 10
The centering on the front is nearly perfect, with only a very slight shift toward the left and top.
Corners: 7 / 10
Front: The Top Left and Top Right corners show very minor touches of wear. The bottom corners remain remarkably sharp. Back: All four corners on the back show minor touches of whitening consistent with careful handling over time.
Edges: 8 / 10
The back edges show some very minor natural roughness typical of the original factory cut for this era.
Surface: 10 / 10
Front: The front surface is excellent, with bright colors, a clean gloss, and no visible scratches or print defects. Back: The back surface is well-preserved with clear text and no signs of staining or creases.
