1948 Bowman Warren Spahn #18

The auto and the card need to compliment each other. Sadly its placement does not work here. The card and its off centering and the placement of the auto(which itself is nice and clean and bold) but over the main image really drags it down

Nice auto but I'm not a fan of the placement. The centering is too far off for me to enjoy this card.

Centering and placement sink the eye appeal for my money.

Nice auto, but the rest of the presentation caps the eye appeal.

The 48 Bowman Spahn is one of those cards that the picture chosen is so bad that it ends up being cool. I don’t like when cards are signed over the face of the subject. It being very OC dings it a bit too for me. Still a great card to have in a collection though.

The best part of the card is obviously the auto. Nice and bold. However, the L/R centering is pretty bad and I don't like the placement of the auto right on the face.

The auto is great, yet unfortunately the pieces just don't come together on this one for me. The placement and the centering prove near fatal to eye appeal in my opinion. Points saved because those pieces (auto, clean image) are nice when viewed individually.
