A GUS BELL from the 1957 TOPPS set, card #180. This is a great addition to any CINCINNATI REDS collection.
Graded by Mint Condition: 5
This vintage card presents well but is limited to a mid-grade assessment due to the moderate rounding and whitening present on all four corners. While the surface remains in excellent condition, the corner wear and chipping along the edges define the final grade.
Centering: 7 / 10
The front displays a moderate shift toward the left edge and a slight shift toward the top.
Corners: 4 / 10
Front: All four corners exhibit visible rounding and moderate whitening consistent with a vintage issue of this age. Back: The reverse corners show softening and light paper loss at the tips, matching the wear seen on the front.
Edges: 6 / 10
Front: The edges show minor chipping and shelf wear, particularly along the top and bottom borders. Back: Light chipping and typical vintage edge wear are visible along the perimeter of the back.
Surface: 9 / 10
Front: The surface is well-preserved with strong color and no major scratches or creases. Back: The back surface shows natural age-toning but remains clean and free of staining or ink marks.
