A DON NEWCOMBE from the 1961 TOPPS set, card #483. This is a great addition to any BROOKLYN DODGERS collection.
Graded by Mint Condition: 4
This is a remarkably well-preserved example with corner and surface attributes that far exceed the average for its age. However, the heavy horizontal centering shift on the front creates a technical ceiling, making it a strong candidate for an Off-Center qualifier.
Centering: 3 / 10
The front has a heavy leftward shift and a moderate shift toward the bottom edge.
Corners: 9 / 10
Front: The corners are exceptionally well-preserved for a vintage issue, with only the slightest touch of micro-fuzz visible on the Top Left corner. Back: All four corners on the reverse appear sharp with minimal signs of handling.
Edges: 10 / 10
Front: The edges are clean and firm, showing virtually no chipping or fraying. Back: The perimeter of the back is crisp with no noticeable wear along the stock edges.
Surface: 10 / 10
Front: The card surface is bright and clean, free of any visible scratches, creases, or print defects. Back: The reverse is in excellent condition, showing no evidence of wax staining or age-related toning.
