A GUS ZERNIAL from the 1956 TOPPS set, card #45. This is a great addition to any KANSAS CITY ATHLETICS collection.
Graded by Mint Condition: 4
The final grade is primarily determined by the moderate rounding present on all four corners. While the surface and centering are quite strong for a vintage 1956 issue, the physical wear at the corners limits the overall condition to a mid-grade level.
Centering: 9 / 10
The front displays a left-leaning horizontal alignment and a slight top-heavy vertical orientation.
Corners: 3 / 10
Front: All four corners exhibit moderate rounding and visible softening, with the Top Right corner showing the most significant wear. Back: The reverse corners mirror the front with consistent rounding and minor touches of whitening at the tips.
Edges: 8 / 10
Front: The top edge shows minor chipping and roughness, while the remaining edges are relatively clean for a card of this era. Back: Minor edge wear and slight chipping are visible on the reverse, particularly along the right side.
Surface: 9 / 10
Front: The surface is well-preserved with vibrant colors and features a clean, bold autograph across the upper portion. Back: The reverse surface is exceptionally clean, with the text and cartoons remaining sharp and legible.
