1965 TOPPS JOHN BATEMAN 433 NRMT MCG 7 BASEBALL HOUSTON ASTROS

A JOHN BATEMAN from the 1965 TOPPS set, card #433. This is a great addition to any HOUSTON ASTROS collection. Graded by Mint Condition: 7 The final grade is primarily limited by the front vertical centering, which is shifted significantly toward the top. While the surface and edges are in exceptional condition for a vintage 1965 issue, the centering and minor corner touches place it in the Near Mint category. Centering: 7 / 10 The vertical centering is noticeably top-heavy, appearing right at the threshold for a mid-to-high grade. Corners: 7 / 10 Front: The Top Left, Top Right, and Bottom Left corners show minor touches of wear and very slight rounding. The Bottom Right corner is sharp. Back: Similar to the front, three corners show light touches of whitening consistent with careful handling over time. Edges: 9 / 10 The edges are remarkably clean, with only minor factory roughness visible along the left edge. Surface: 10 / 10 Front: The front surface is excellent, with no visible scratches, print defects, or creasing. Back: The reverse surface is clean with natural age-appropriate toning and no signs of staining. Please pay for multiple cards in ONE payment. You will receive the card in the title and picture.
