Graded by Mint Condition: 4
The card exhibits exceptional corner sharpness and clean surfaces for a vintage issue, but is primarily restricted by noticeable off-centering on both sides, particularly the heavy top bias on the reverse and leftward shift on the front.

Front: Front centering is horizontally off-center, with the right border substantially wider than the left border. Back: Back borders are well balanced, with no significant centering deviation detected.
Corners: 4 / 10
Front: Bottom Left corner shows the slightest touch of softening, while the remaining corners retain excellent shape for the era. Back: Top Left corner displays faint micro-wear at the tip, but all corners remain remarkably well-preserved.

Surface: 8 / 10
Front: Upper area shows minor vintage print specks in the sky, free of any creases, scratches, or stains. Back: The reverse surface is exceptionally clean with bold red and black print and no wax staining or markings.
