A DON KOLLOWAY from the 1953 TOPPS set, card #97. This is a great addition to any PHILADELPHIA ATHLETICS collection.
Graded by Mint Condition: 4
While the card exhibits solid centering and relatively sharp corners for its age, the presence of prominent ink writing on the back significantly impacts the final grade assessment.
Centering: 9 / 10
The front displays excellent symmetry with only a very slight bias toward the top and left.
Corners: 8 / 10
Front: The corners show mild touches of wear and very slight softening consistent with age, though they remain relatively square. Back: Similar to the front, the corners exhibit light whitening and minor corner touches.
Edges: 8 / 10
Front: The edges are generally well-preserved with only minor chipping visible on the left and right sides. Back: The edges show some light rubbing and minor shelf wear, particularly along the top edge.
Surface: 3 / 10
A prominent name is written in red ink across the center of the card back, which serves as the primary condition flaw.
