A GUS TRIANDOS from the 1957 TOPPS set, card #156. This is a great addition to any BALTIMORE ORIOLES collection.
Graded by Mint Condition: 5
This vintage card presents well for its age. The primary factors limiting the grade are the visible rounding on the corners and the moderate top-left centering shift on the front. However, the surface remains remarkably clean and the back centering is excellent for a card from the late 1950s.
Centering: 7 / 10
The front displays a left-heavy centering with the right border being significantly wider than the left. There is also a slight shift toward the top.
Corners: 4 / 10
Front: The Top Right and Bottom Right corners show visible rounding and minor whitening. The left corners are slightly softened but maintain better structure. Back: All four corners exhibit uniform touches of wear and minor rounding consistent with the age of the card.
Edges: 7 / 10
Front: The Right edge shows a typical rough-cut texture characteristic of this vintage issue. The remaining edges are relatively smooth with only minor chipping. Back: Minor chipping and light fraying are visible along the Right edge, while the Top and Bottom edges remain clean.
Surface: 8 / 10
The surface maintains strong color and a clear image. Some light print snow is visible in the darker background areas, which is common for this era.
