A EDDIE KAZAK from the 1951 BOWMAN set, card #85. This is a great addition to any St. Louis Cardinals collection.
Graded by Mint Condition: 4
This vintage Bowman issue is well-preserved with strong corners and edges. The final assessment is primarily governed by the heavy vertical centering shift and visible surface scuffing on the front.
Centering: 3 / 10
The back mirrors the front's vertical shift and shows a moderate horizontal lean to the right.
Corners: 8 / 10
Front: The Top Left corner shows a hint of softening. The other three corners remain remarkably sharp for this era. Back: Minor touches are visible on the top corners, while the bottom corners appear clean.
Edges: 8 / 10
Front: The edges are generally clean, with only minor traces of the rough factory cut typical of vintage Bowman stock. Back: The edges remain well-defined with very light chipping visible only under close inspection.
Surface: 6 / 10
A vertical scuff is visible in the blue background area on the left side. There are also a few small instances of surface wear on the jersey.
