1950 Bowman Jackie Robinson #22

God do I love this card. I tried hard for it. Bold, not too rushed Jackie autos are so hard to find. And they do wonders for the 50B. Finally giving that set the nameplate it needed. Trade me 3mm of white border on the left and you're looking at GOD tier.

This copy is all about the auto which carries it to a B for me.

Perfect auto, which is the purpose of the card. The OC issue is a tad distracting.

This auto rocks my world and if the centering was even a little better this cracks the A Tier easily. Would be happy to own and stare at this signed copy.

the card and auto need to compliment each other for max appeal. The cards color and image are good but the centering is way off. The auto is well located and nice and legible but not as bold as I would like. Great card from the point of an auto Jackie but the overall Eye Appeal is held back a bit do to lack of boldness and way off center

I know he didn't sign a lot of cards, and is the best signature of his I've seen on any card. Normally this type of centering would drop a card to C tier or lower for me, but I could get past it because of the auto.

The highlight of course is the nice bold auto. The centering really holds it back for me.
