A PAUL WANER from the 1939 PLAY BALL set, card #112a. This is a great addition to any PITTSBURGH PIRATES collection.
Graded by Mint Condition: 2
This vintage card shows substantial wear appropriate for its age, but is technically limited by the heavy creasing and significant corner rounding. While the centering remains excellent, the structural integrity of the card stock is compromised by the visible creases on both sides.
Centering: 10 / 10
Front: The player image is well-positioned on the front despite the lack of traditional borders. Back: The back exhibits nearly ideal centering with only a very minor shift toward the left.
Corners: 2 / 10
Front: All four corners are heavily rounded with significant wear and layering of the card stock. Back: The reverse corners show the same heavy rounding and softening as seen on the front.
Edges: 3 / 10
Front: Significant fraying and chipping are visible along all edges, particularly on the top and right sides. Back: The edges on the reverse show consistent wear, fraying, and age-related darkening.
Surface: 2 / 10
Front: A prominent crease is visible in the lower-left area, along with heavy age-related toning and several smaller surface indentations. Back: Multiple creases and significant surface staining are present across the back of the card.
