1933 Goudey Lou Gehrig #92

The image looks nice. Centering is off top to bottom, but the main issues are the surface wear and the crease. Also some corner wear and edge chipping on the left.

A solid B with the central image being very easy to look at and pleasing. A longer look and I do notice the one crease, corner wear, and centering, but none of those flaws is what I'd call jarring.

This is to me the quintessential B- badge card. The overall eye appeal is to me too strong to land in the C Tier. On a close and long look, the flaws emerge. But on an overall impression level, the central image and absence of glaring issues are the winning combo.

If the centering were on the money or the main crease not there, this would hit the B tier. The facial detail and registration are crisp. The dirt by his hands does impact eye appeal to me.

surface wear, spots and crease distract from a card that has nice (not perfect borders) Can still be enjoyed just held back

The crease on the lower left and surface wear are the main issue.
