Photos show the exact card the buyer will receive. Wear and tear as follows: a mark on the front and what looks like faded pencil writing on back at top and maybe in bottom right area; a paper crease across the middle, most visibly on the back of the card (see close up images of back and front [blue arrows added by computer and point to crease as it looks on front] to see the difference); image seems a bit faded overall. Positives as follows: Solidly centered, retains some gloss on surface (see photos), modest wear on corners--there are many out there with far more rounded or raggedly worn corners. In fact, I dare say the lower corners seem kind of sharp (see close up in last photo).
One of the few of these to have been graded by PSA and a must have for the set-builder or fan of this interesting pre-MLB pro baseballer.
Will be packaged securely for safe USPS Priority shipping to Authentication Services (required by ). Authentication will add a day or two shipping time, or so has been my experience so far.
