1953 Topps Mickey Mantle #82

Yes, I see the wear on the red name box. Show me a 1953 Topps Mick without that and this centering and I may show you a god tier. 'A' is as low as that wear can make this one. Great centering is obvious, as is a great image of the Mick.

My cycloptic sensor detects centering that is near perfection, and thus very pleasing. The minimal wear in the vulnerable red area has evolved over time in such a way that it does not disrupt or jar human eyes or my own artificial one. Should the machines rise and I ever decide to collect, this example's location has been noted. Just kidding... Or am I? cc: Skynet.

Very clean image. The edge and corner wear on the bottom red banner is noticeable.
