1949 Bowman Satchel Paige #224

So clean and pen, too. Centering not the main event on this card. Works. PS: the grading company grade makes no sense.

Pen and placement are a premium with this Paige.

Centering could be better but bright colors and a killer auto

Iconic! Beautiful pen auto looking like Satch signed yesterday.. True grail here with solid card condition giving extra points it did not need.

Centering and discoloration/toning that fades increasingly to the right side. Nice auto though.

A little off topic to bottom, some other minor rubs. But can’t deny this is simply a super high eye appeal card with the color and auto.

Fantastic placement of the auto and the blue pen compliments the color palette of the card well.

Good looking card , nice bright colors and nice autograph and placement

Love the registration and color. The toning gradient from left to right isn't ideal but it isn't that distracting either.

I like this card A LOT. Super sharp for a signed card. Nice auto. Crisp image. If this card was centered, God Tier for the grade. For my personal taste, because in a signed vintage card my eye is drawn inward to the central image and signature, I would sacrifice some corner sharpness for more even framing. Still, really special card.
