A FRANK SHEA from the 1953 TOPPS set, card #164. This is a great addition to any WASHINGTON SENATORS collection.
Graded by Mint Condition: 4
The overall condition of this vintage card is primarily limited by a prominent name stamp on the reverse side, which acts as a significant surface defect. While the front of the card displays excellent color and well-preserved corners for a 1953 issue, the surface marking and noticeable right-heavy centering on the front cap the final grade.
