1954 Johnston Cookies Hank Aaron #5

God tier image, but the rest of the card has issues (centering, stains, etc). Still, I love the image.

Great image of Hank. Colors pop and his face shines. Great registration. Holding the card back are slight centering shift and the yellow staining at the bottom

Sharp Hank RC

The image and color are amazing. There are obvious issues such as the staining on the bottom. A bit off-centered L/R. I can't put it in the "A" tiers because oh how prominent the staining is.

The image looks nice and clear and the color looks great as well. The centering is off a little, but the main issue is the residue at the bottom of the card.

Very strong image and corners with some stuff going on at the bottom. Nice card.

It has the potential for a good looking card. That bottom staining is really a distraction when it comes down to the final grade.

the discoloring at the bottom is to much and to distracting. The image itself and colors are good. Add to it the off centering and mis sized borders and it slides down the scale a bit more

Interesting card. In my opinion we've got a top tier card with gunk on the bottom, so assuming the numeric system hit this with a 1 or maybe 1.5, this Hank should have a beefy EyeQ+ A great grab because I could enjoy the image, and it is a tall/long card so the damage is serendipitously located. Just too nice for the C Tier.

I actually had to compare because at first I hardly noticed the bottom border area, which appears to be residue, perhaps from an album. I thought at first glance that was the card design. The rest is great with just a centering shift. Because the problem is so far from the main image I stay in the B zone.
