A LOU KRETLOW from the 1957 TOPPS set, card #139. This is a great addition to any KANSAS CITY ATHLETICS collection. Graded by Mint Condition: 6 This 1957 Topps card is in excellent condition, highlighted by centering that is far superior to most examples from this year. The grade is primarily limited by the moderate edge chipping on the left and minor touches to the corners. Centering: 9 / 10 Front: The front displays superb centering across both axes, which is quite rare for this era. Back: The back is shifted slightly toward the bottom and right edges but remains well within acceptable standards. Corners: 6 / 10 All four corners on the reverse side show visible whitening and minor rounding, consistent with careful handling over time. Edges: 7 / 10 The Left edge shows moderate chipping and factory-cut roughness typical of the 1957 Topps set. The remaining edges are much cleaner. Surface: 9 / 10 The back is very clean with sharp text and no evidence of wax staining or surface soiling. Please pay for multiple cards in ONE payment.
