A BOB SPEAKE from the 1956 TOPPS set, card #66. This is a great addition to any CHICAGO CUBS collection.
Graded by Mint Condition: 4
This vintage card is well-centered for the era, but the overall grade is primarily driven by the moderate corner rounding and edge wear visible on both sides. The surface remains in good condition with no major creases or stains.
Centering: 7 / 10
The horizontal centering is virtually perfect, while the top border is noticeably thicker than the bottom.
Corners: 3 / 10
Front: All four corners show significant rounding and whitening consistent with handled vintage card stock. Back: Rounding and wear are present on all corners of the reverse side, mirroring the condition found on the front.
Edges: 5 / 10
Front: The edges show moderate chipping and chipping-related whitening, particularly along the bottom and right edges. Back: Light fraying and chipping are visible along all four edges of the back.
Surface: 8 / 10
Front: The front surface is relatively clean for its age, showing only minor print snow and typical vintage age-toning. Back: The back shows uniform yellowing and minor surface wear but remains free of heavy staining or creases.
