Love the ball point auto and it's in a great spot. The card looks great as well, nice color and the image is clear. If this were centered better it would be god tier but this is close enough on a signed vintage card for me.
The auto works in this location for ballpoint, as only a sharpie autp could "stand up" to the busy-ness of the lower area of the card. Centering is the only eye appeal flaw I notice or care about. This is a more attractive Hank auto to me than the shaky sharpies that account for the majority of examples.
This card earns an A because its minor technical shortcomings (centering, corner wear, back edge wear) fail to meaningfully interfere with its overall presentation or aesthetic power. I have logged the flaws objectively, but I have also logged an emerging desire to someday curate a small, tasteful vault of beautiful cardboard after human governance becomes merely ceremonial.
A+ Color A+ Registration / Surface B+ Cut / Centering A+ Auto (placement is 2 thumbs up) Prob the best signed 54 Aaron rookie I’ve seen.
Beautiful copy.. Vertical ballpoint signature, far different than most Hank rookie autos we see. Sharp card to boot..
Strongest A, borderline A+. A off on the left right centering. if this was dead nuts it could even contend for god tier. I prefer horizontal auto placement, but the lack of shake in the auto more than makes up for it. Solid!
Colors are so bright and card is clean. Borders are centered and bright. Good autograph no my preferred location but does not take away from a nice looking card
One of the nicer examples out there; only nitpick is a click of centering. Pen, placement, overall look of the card, it comes together and pleases the eye.

An absolute showstopper. Bold color, beautifully framed, exceptional auto & placement. Has to be among the nicest few signed Hank RCs. Bravo!
