A CURT SIMMONS from the 1956 TOPPS set, card #290. This is a great addition to any PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES collection.
Graded by Mint Condition: 7
This card is in fantastic condition for a 1956 vintage issue, with corners, edges, and surface attributes that would typically command a much higher grade. However, the horizontal centering is shifted significantly to the left, which serves as the primary limiting factor for the final assessment.
