1951 Bowman Mickey Mantle #253

The image quality is A+ and the centering is off only enough to warrant the A- badge in my opinion.

This is a very pretty copy with excellent image focus and side centering as the only issue I could see wanting improved. Which would be tough to do.

What a card! If the card was a tiny bit better centered it would be "god tier". Very special copy.

Left/right centering is my only gripe. This is A levels for sure on eye appeal.

This is about as good as the Mantle Rookie gets in terms of eye appeal; if centered better side to side, A+ for me.

Has a tilt and is off center. But I like the centering and size of the borders. Many of these are not as good. Has nice color and strong image. Does have some surface issues and minor discoloring. But I like this card and the overall look

Very nicely centered. The cap is fairly clear and face looks focused. The black name box has some white. Colors are very good.
