1951 Bowman Mickey Mantle #253

Centering obviously prevents A Tier, yet the image is comparatively focused on this one with no other distractions.

The registration trumps any flaws for me. Beautiful example. I like.

The image and color look great and the surface is clean. Registration is a little off though and the left to right centering keeps this at a high B on appeal for me.

Registration looks pretty focused. Only major issue is the L/R centering

Great looking card with so much appeal held back by the off centering left/right and mid sized borders. All else has the wow factor
