A FRANK THOMAS from the 1959 TOPPS set, card #490. This is a great addition to any CINCINNATI REDLEGS collection.
Graded by Mint Condition: 5
The final grade is primarily determined by the condition of the corners, which show moderate rounding consistent with a well-preserved vintage card. While the centering is off, the physical wear to the corner tips is the most restrictive factor.
Centering: 7 / 10
The front displays a pronounced horizontal shift toward the left border, while the vertical centering remains excellent.
Corners: 4 / 10
Front: All four corners show rounding, with the most significant wear visible on the Top Right and Bottom Left corners. Back: The back corners mirror the front with noticeable softening and whitening at the tips.
Edges: 7 / 10
The back edges show standard age-related roughness and light fraying, particularly along the top.
Surface: 6 / 10
Front: A faint vertical print line or scratch is visible across the center portrait, though the green background remains vibrant. Back: The back surface shows uniform age-related toning and a small, faint stain near the bottom center illustration.
