1960 Hemmets Journal Cassius Clay #23

Beautiful example. Extremely nice overall presentation.

A few small print issues on surface but displays very well. Love the centering and color on this copy!

A for the day for Cassius Clay

Some minor print issues (fish eye and some white in the upper left green background) don’t do much to distract from an overall excellent example.

This was a tough one for me! On one hand, the card to me is GT except for the issues in the top left: a large fish eye and a few missing pixels of color. That much I know off the bat. The centering, corners, and edges, even the central image, all GT. The back is a non-issue for me, so that's set aside. The question is how much is my eye fixated on the top left flaws... Staring at it a while, I think that while it straddles the very good B+ and excellent A- badges, in real life I'd choose to experience it more in my wall display, where it hits me like the higher badge, and less would I hold it closer in hand, where the flaws would hit me harder. So going A-.

nice looking card with a solid image and colors. the surface wear and minor centering opportunity hold it back

Nicely centered. Minor surface wear holds it back.
