A HAL BROWN from the 1959 TOPPS set, card #487. This is a great addition to any BALTIMORE ORIOLES collection.
Graded by Mint Condition: 7
This is a remarkably well-preserved vintage card. The corners and surface are in exceptional condition for its age. The final grade is determined by the horizontal centering shift on the front, which is the only notable deviation from a higher grade.
Centering: 7 / 10
Horizontal centering is shifted toward the left, while the top and bottom borders are nearly equal.
Corners: 8 / 10
The Top Right corner has a very slight touch of whitening. The other three corners are sharp and well-defined for a vintage card.
Edges: 8 / 10
The left edge shows some minor factory roughness, which is common for this era, while the remaining edges are smooth.
Surface: 9 / 10
The surface is extremely clean with strong color; only very light print speckling is visible in the blue background area.
