A GENE OLIVER from the 1963 TOPPS set, card #172. This is a great addition to any ST. LOUIS CARDINALS collection.
Graded by Mint Condition: 8
This 1963 Topps Gene Oliver is a high-grade example characterized by elite centering and a very clean surface. The final assessment is primarily limited by the minor corner touches and slight edge wear typical of an 8-grade vintage card.
Centering: 9 / 10
Front: The front displays near-perfect centering with just a marginal preference toward the right side. Back: The back centering is slightly top-heavy but remains well within acceptable standards for a high-grade vintage card.
Corners: 8 / 10
Front: The corners are remarkably sharp for the era, with only minor touches visible on the Top Left and Top Right corners. Back: The back corners show minor fuzzing and light whitening consistent with the front.
Edges: 9 / 10
Front: The edges are clean and straight, with only the slightest hint of chipping along the Bottom edge's blue border. Back: The back edges are smooth and free of any significant chipping or fraying.
Surface: 10 / 10
Front: The surface is pristine with vibrant colors, a glossy finish, and no visible scratches or print defects. Back: The reverse surface is clean and bright, showing only expected light age-toning.
