this is one of my favorite sets. This card has nice eye appeal from the colors and the main image. Condition issues related to edges, corners, and borders holds it back especially and sadly do the the damage on the black box that stands out
Reminds me a lot of my ’53T Mantle. For me, while the corners and nameplate fall a bit short, the image and centering carry it. Beauty.
Image of Jackie is spot on and well-centered. A bit too much wear on the bottom right edge in the black. The fisheye next to the Dodgers logo does distract a bit.
Corners are pretty beat but the sharp image and above average centering carry the day. Great low grade copy.
Well centered with a nice image. Corner wear and some edge wear around the black box keeps this just below A tier, but a nice lower grade example that I would buy.
Fastball down the middle of eye appeal here. The main image can be enjoyed without distraction, and honest corner wear is the flaw I most easily shrug off and tolerate. The black edge is quite strong.
I can see guys that value corners disagreeing with my assessment but the centering and image are phenomenal. When a card is centered this well it really draws the eye away from the edges and corners imo.

Well framed, good image if a little light with some obvious rounding
