A FORREST JACOBS from the 1954 TOPPS set, card #129. This is a great addition to any PHILADELPHIA ATHLETICS collection.
Graded by Mint Condition: 5
This vintage card is well-preserved but is limited by moderate rounding on all four corners and a significant left-side centering shift on the front. While the surface remains free of major defects like creases, the cumulative corner wear and edge chipping result in a mid-grade assessment.
Centering: 6 / 10
The front has a significant left-heavy horizontal shift, with the left border being much thinner than the right.
Corners: 4 / 10
Front: All four corners show moderate rounding and visible whitening consistent with handled vintage stock. Back: The corners on the reverse show similar rounding and shelf wear to the front, particularly at the Bottom Right.
Edges: 6 / 10
Front: The top edge shows minor chipping and wear across the surface. The remaining edges are relatively clean. Back: Visible fraying and light chipping are present along the right and bottom edges.
Surface: 8 / 10
Front: The surface is well-preserved with no major creases, though typical age-related toning is present. Back: The reverse surface is clean with no ink marks or staining, showing only natural paper aging.
