A DICK DONOVAN from the 1957 TOPPS set, card #181. This is a great addition to any CHICAGO WHITE SOX collection.
Graded by Mint Condition: 4
This card presents in Very Good condition. While the centering and surface quality are relatively strong for a 1957 issue, the overall grade is primarily constrained by the moderate rounding and wear observed on all four corners.
Centering: 7 / 10
The front shows a clear left-leaning horizontal bias, though it remains within acceptable limits for the era.
Corners: 3 / 10
Front: All four corners show moderate rounding and visible whitening of the card stock, consistent with handled vintage condition. Back: The back corners mirror the front with significant rounding and exposure of the underlying cardboard.
Edges: 7 / 10
Front: Minor chipping and light wear are visible along all edges, particularly on the top and right sides. Back: The edges on the reverse show light, uniform wear typical for a card of this age.
Surface: 8 / 10
Front: The surface is generally clean with good color retention, though some minor print snow and light scuffs are present. Back: The reverse shows natural age-toning and minor foxing, but the text and graphics remain clear and legible.
