A DON BESSENT from the 1957 TOPPS set, card #178. This is a great addition to any BROOKLYN DODGERS collection.
Graded by Mint Condition: 7
This 1957 vintage card is in strong condition for its age. While there is a noticeable centering shift toward the right and some mild softening of the corners, the absence of structural damage like creases or significant surface wear results in a high mid-grade assessment.
Centering: 7 / 10
The centering on the front is shifted toward the right side and slightly toward the top edge.
Corners: 7 / 10

Surface: 8 / 10
Front: The front surface maintains vibrant color and is free of creases or major scratches, showing only typical print grain. Back: The back surface shows uniform age-toning and remains clean without any markings or stains.
