Sheesh, incredible example for the grade. A few minor flaws (including a L/R shift) don't significantly impact the eye appeal. Excellent color and sharp reg.
Corners and the white line coming down through the 1st "E" in George detract. Image of the Babe is strong.
I have studied this card quite extensively. Unless there is a crease/ wrinkle that isn't showing up on the scanned in image, I don't get it... Tough TPG and I do not agree. If this card went to market, I would be a buyer.
A great looking β1β with eye appeal that far surpasses the technical grade. The color pops and the centering is actually pretty nice for a red Ruth.
Highly, highly satisfying to the eye. Somehow, the color and image here just hold your attention and you don't really say to yourself, "These corners are worn, and the centering is off." And I say that as a centering guy. Proof that eye appeal really is not math or science. This is going to be a pound for pount beast when its EyeQ+ score unlocks.
Bold colors and strong clarity. Major corner wear and off centering holds this down a bit, but still comes across as a card that should be graded much higher than a 1.
Beautiful card, if it was left to right centered I would give it a higher score but incredible for the grade.
ALL I see the the red and the image. Both of them just POP out and really catch my eye. The off centering and the discoloration bothers me as I am a BORDERS guy. But that Image over rides the rest

Surface is clean, centering is decent. Corners are what you'd expect for a 1-2 grade. Card is much nicer than its grade.
