A BILL SARNI from the 1956 TOPPS set, card #247. This is a great addition to any ST. LOUIS CARDINALS collection.
Graded by Mint Condition: 3
This vintage card presents in Very Good-Excellent condition. While the surface and edges have held up well for its age, the grade is primarily limited by significant corner rounding and a heavy centering shift toward the right edge.
Centering: 3 / 10
The horizontal centering is heavily shifted toward the right side of the card. The top border is also slightly narrower than the bottom.
Corners: 3 / 10
Front: All four corners show moderate rounding and visible whitening. The Bottom Right corner is the most impacted, showing significant softening. Back: The corners on the reverse side mirror the front, with clear rounding and exposed card stock visible at each tip.
Edges: 6 / 10
Front: The edges show minor chipping and light fraying, particularly along the thinner right border and the top edge. Back: Consistent edge wear and light chipping are visible along the perimeter of the reverse side.
Surface: 8 / 10
Front: The front surface maintains vibrant color with light 'snowing' print defects typical of mid-50s issues. No major scratches or creases were detected. Back: The back exhibits standard age-toning but remains very clean and legible without any signs of staining or marking.
