1951 Bowman Mickey Mantle #253

Nice card, but centering and a bit of snow on the cap hold this one back.

Really nice card with some centering issues.

A really solid B for me. Centering and some focus issues, most visible around Mick's hat and bat are the major flaws. Colors are very vibrant and and no roller lines or major printing issues. Such a tough card and this is a great example overall.

Color looks nice. Centering is off and the registration also is off around his bat and hat. The surface damage on his face is noticeable as well.

Centering caps this eye appeal to the B Tier, and the registration and faint but viewable specks on his cap area prevent a B+. Settles in at a respectable B for this notoriously tough classic.

the image and the colors are solid and have a nice appeal to them. THe top bottom centering is off but left right looks good(horizontal and further apart makes the issue less noticeable)

T/B centering and too much snow on the cap and black name box.

Nice bright color but the image is off registered and the top to bottom centering could be better. Overall decent example though.
