1909 American Caramel Cy Young #portrait

The flaws (corners, the printing marks at bottom, cut) don't really impair my viewing enjoyment here!

really nice looking cards with sharp colors and image and nice size borders. minor tilt but what holds this back is the mark/line at the botton But for the card and the age and the player WOW

The angled cut on the top border is the main issue. Love the colors and image.

Love the bold red and the centering is decent enough. The flaw at the bottom does tug at my eye a bit, but the overall eye appeal is strong enough to break out of the B tier.

I'll take it! Message me the invoice! Joking aside, I have been on the lookout for one of these for quite some time. The deep red plus a registered/focused image of Cy is the key combination I want, followed by good centering. This specimen has that exact blend of attributes. The strike mark at the bottom does not faze me much at all, and the centering being a hair off is just a minor flaw. Its flaws cannot nudge it from the A Badge, for my taste.
