1953 Topps Mickey Mantle #82

Very good eye appeal, that rises way above the technical concerns. Hits my eye very well.

Image and colors are nice and bold. A bit of toning around the borders. Centering is a bit high but the card presents very well.

The colors and the image are strong and the image stands tall. The border sizes are fine to me and left/right centering is balance. The takeaway is that the top bordering and top of card is discolored that distracts from the card and the nicks on the Red really bother me as they are noticeable on this one

Wow this is a beauty and big EyeQ candidate. Backs of cards are not something I really care about especially when I can still see all the content there. Centering and some red zone wear are what detract, is all.
