A ROB GARDNER from the TOPPS set, card #219. This is a great addition to any CHICAGO CUBS collection.

The grade is primarily governed by the heavy vertical centering shift on the reverse, accompanied by light softening across the corners consistent with vintage stock.

Corners: 4 / 10

Front: Top edge shows faint factory rough-cut texture typical of the issue, but no distinct chipping or fraying. Back: All four edges are well-preserved with only minor vintage toning along the cut perimeter.
Surface: 8 / 10
Front: The front surface is clean and glossy with crisp color reproduction and no visible scratches or creases. Back: The reverse surface is clean with natural vintage chipboard pulp inclusions and no distracting stains or creases.
