A LEFTY GROVE from the 1938 WHEATIES set, card #11. This is a great addition to any BOSTON RED SOX collection.
Graded by Mint Condition: 3
This vintage premium is limited by significant surface wear, including a pinhole and multiple creases. The hand-cut edges and rounded corners are typical for this type of collectible, but the combination of physical defects and heavy staining results in a lower technical condition.
Centering: 6 / 10
The vertical centering is significantly bottom-heavy due to a slanted hand-cut. The horizontal centering is slightly shifted toward the right.
Corners: 3 / 10
Front: The Bottom Right corner features a significant crease and heavy rounding. All four corners show moderate to advanced wear and softening. Back: The corners show significant fraying and paper loss, consistent with the age of the card stock.
Edges: 4 / 10
Front: The edges are roughly cut, especially the Bottom edge, which shows a jagged and uneven finish. Back: There is noticeable chipping and fraying along all four edges of the paper stock.
Surface: 2 / 10
Front: A small pinhole is visible in the Top Right area. There are also several creases, most notably in the Bottom Right, and moderate foxing across the surface. Back: The back shows significant age-related staining and brown foxing spots throughout the surface.
