A JOHNNY BENCH from the 1977 TOPPS set, card #70. This is a great addition to any CINCINNATI REDS collection.
Graded by Mint Condition: 3
The card features outstanding high-grade corners, edges, and surface preservation on both sides. However, the final grade is severely constrained by the significant vertical off-center alignment on both the front and back borders.
Centering: 3 / 10
The front features excellent left-to-right alignment, but is severely shifted toward the bottom border.
Corners: 4 / 10
All four corners remain remarkably sharp for a vintage card, showing only microscopic fiber softening on the Bottom Left tip.
Edges: 8 / 10
Front: All edges are clean and cleanly cut with only minor factory rough-cut texture along the right border. Back: The reverse edges present beautifully with only minor chipping on the right edge.
Surface: 9 / 10
Front: The front surface is exceptionally clean, retaining its original gloss with no visible scratches or print defects. Back: The reverse cardboard stock is clean and free of any wax stains or print marks.
