1939 Play Ball Ted Williams #92

There's some surface damage, but William's is untouched and unfazed. It ain't perfect but it's still a looker.

Wow, the centering is outstanding! I also like the slight gap between the top of Ted's cap and the top border (sometimes it feels cramped). Image itself as some surface distractions on both the right and left side. Right border looks rough. All in all, a well presented Williams rookie to me

Very nice centering, but the surface wear brings it back to the B range for me

For me, the centering here is so elite, and the problems are away from Ted. So the eye appeal stays very high.

The centering wins me over, and the surface problems avoid Ted which is clutch.

Nice centering, too much surface issues.

I would really enjoy this example as it hits my two key sweet spots of centering and clean subject image. The flaws that impact eye appeal are away from the main event and so the overall looks remain solid for my taste.

Nicely framed up and the surface issues are well disguised.

luckily it is a black and white photo as the surface wear/snow almost makes it look like it is supposed to be that way like on a vintage photo out of Grandma/pa photo albums. The big bold borders stand out well and frames the card nicely and the main image is mostly clean. I enjoy the look but some may not enjoy the snow

Very good centering. Too much surface wear in the background.
