1932 U.s. Caramel Babe Ruth #32

For me the stain is not a bother. I'd buy this one and love the focused image, no ghostly outline, and that centering, which is close enough to my strikezone. And if a better centered copy with no stain came along, then cool.

The color loss/stain in the the top left quadrant doesn't bother me too much since the rest of the card is really nice to my eye.

Image of Ruth is strong. Biggest distraction for me is the discoloration on the left. Hurts the eye-appeal for me.

Centering is not bad, but off left to right with some tilt. The image and right half of the card look great but the large stain to his left would bother me too much.

This card is not for me. With so many available I would be passing strictly because of the discoloring on the card and the size of it I cannot get past it from an Eye Appeal point of view
