Index grading notes
Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border visibly thinner than bottom (~60/40 T/B) — centering is passable but not tight. All four corners show rounding visible even at this resolution, consistent with VG to VG-EX range; no corners appear sharp. Surface shows significant toning and age-related color oxidation across the entire card face — typical for an 80+ year old card on this stock — with some gloss loss evident. A possible light crease or fold line runs diagonally near the lower center-left area but the hand angle and sleeve glare make it difficult to confirm definitively; if a crease is confirmed on inspection the grade sits at 3, if surface wear only with rounded corners and no crease it could reach 4. Back condition unknown and could move the grade in either direction.
Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — centering is reasonable for the grade range. Corners show visible rounding on all four, most pronounced at the lower-left and upper-right corners, consistent with VG to VG-EX range. Edges show wear and roughness, expected for an 83-year-old card but notable nonetheless. Surface shows significant loss of gloss, some light soiling or toning, and what appears to be light surface wrinkling or handling creases across the card face — particularly visible in the upper-left and lower-center areas; the back cannot be assessed. This is a heavily handled example of a rare and desirable pre-war set; the visible wear and surface issues cap the estimate around VG (3), with VG-EX (4) possible only if the creases visible in the photo are shallow and the back is clean.
