Well placed, clear autograph the highlight here. I like right where Mantle put it. Card itself presents well, with good centering and a clear image. The surface appears aged and the crease is noticeable. The only two items holding it back. The autograph and Mantle's face really carry the day here
The incredibly rare Bazooka Mantle becomes even rarer with a superb signature. Of course the card has obvious flaws but this gets some extra points for rarity and the boldness and placement of the auto, which is just about perfect. Taking it all together, solid B for eye appeal.
Crease and surface wear holds it back for me. Auto is nice and bold jumps this into the low B tier.
Love the autograph and the placement. Nice and bold and legible and well placed. The card itself has centering issues, condition issues on the surface wear(especially on the face that takes away from the image and card for me)
Talk about rare. But we're here for eye appeal so will say awesome auto; the vertical crease at bottom holds the overall eye appeal down a bit, the scuffing on top does not bug me.

Now this is a sick card. I love the 59 Bazooka tall boy cards and the auto here is bold, streak free and well placed. The surface and the crease hold this back a bit - but we all know that 59 Bazookas are very tough and condition sensitive.
