A WARREN SPAHN from the 1953 TOPPS set, card #147a. This is a great addition to any BOSTON BRAVES collection. Graded by Mint Condition: 8 This is a high-grade example of a 1953 Topps Warren Spahn. The card's centering is notably superior to most survivors from this era. The final grade is determined by the slight softness on the corners and minor edge chipping on the reverse, which place it in the Near Mint-Mint range. Centering: 9 / 10 The front displays a very slight shift toward the top and left, though it remains well within premium standards. Corners: 8 / 10 Front: The corners are remarkably well-preserved, showing only minor touches of wear on the Bottom Right corner. The other three corners remain sharp. Back: The reverse corners show consistent minor softness typical of the era, particularly at the Bottom Left corner. Edges: 8 / 10 The back edges show slight chipping along the top and bottom borders. Surface: 9 / 10 Front: The color and registration are exceptional. A tiny printing speck is visible above the cap, which is common for this issue. Back: The surface is clean and free of any wax stains or markings, with sharp, legible text.
