1958 Topps Ernie Banks #310

Color pops as it should on this issue.

To my lone yet supremely intelligent eye, this Banks has above average aesthetic appeal; minor imperfections impact with grace, rather than announcing themselves as distractions.

minor surface wear hold it back but the sharp colors and image make it stand tall. Border sizes are good and centering is off slightly but the borders frame the card well

Good color. Some surface issues hold it back from the higher tiers.

I like this card a lot. The image is crisp, the centering is just a tick off, and the yellow is bright and free of glaring PD. Some surface abrasions in his cap and name emerge on a longer look, which combine with the slight centering shift to land the eye appeal at an A-. Bottom line, for my eye the flaws add up but not to too much.
