1954 Bowman Mickey Mantle #202

Centering is top notch and the image is crisp. The edge damage doesn’t bother me much, and the uniform corners add to the charm of the overall presentation. Solid copy.

Edge chipping and corner wear really stands out with these brown borders. Love the centering though and this is a tough card to find centered.

My kid would say this centering is lit. The corner and edge wear is very easy on the eye and I like when some here use the term organic for such wear. Pleasing example.

SGC slabs love to call out white edges don't they. What a card.

The centering and image hold my attention is a pleasing way, while the corner wear just makes me think "old card" as opposed to "not attractive." There is some PD that does not nag my eye so I do not factor it in. This card has some "it factor" for my taste.

The centering carries the day here and the wear is easy on my eye.

these cards win or lose on the panel borders. This card sadly loses on them. Do to the wear and nicks on the corners and edges of the border panels the damage/contrast really stands out and is noticeable. The colors and image are strong and the centering is respectable and it is a card to be owned and enjoy but the panels hold the card back

Very good centering and nice eye appeal. A few print spots and a bit too much corner wear on the two left corners for me.
