1953 Topps Ed Mathews #37

Great looking card with amazing colors and image. Held back by the bottom edge effecting the black box

Everything here is top level except the tilt. Eye appeal lands at a very solid B+ overall to me. A special "shout out" to a super high end black corner and edges.

That image is so clean and holds the eye so well. The vulnerable black zone is exceptional here as well. Tilt is the salient flaw, and while it would normally make more of an impact for my taste, the overall look undergirded by the image, surface, and the clean black really blunt the tilt's impact a bit.
