1959 Topps Baseball Cards - # 1

Includes Mickey Mantle, Duke Snider, Nellie Fox, Willie Mays, Jim Bunning, Enos Slaughter, Yogi Berra, Warren Giles, Ford Frick, Phillies, Reds, Cardinals Unmarked Checklists etc

Grading - I have used a jewelers loupe & a large assortment of PSA Graded examples in addition to their written Standards to determine conditions of corners, surfaces etc - Major flaws, creases etc are noted below

Surface wrinkles were common in early issues & are either inherent within the top layer of the cardboard prior to printing or possibly caused by handling, although it's impossible to create a wrinkle on one side without affecting the opposite side & at a minimum causing a noticeable bend. A surface wrinkle is never broken or cracked & appears on one side of the card only, front or back. Cracked surface wrinkles are creases. All are noted below.

Centering is at least 75/25 & better, measured at it's worst point - All centering less than 75/25 s noted

Legend - (RC) Rookie Card - 20-80 L/R left to right or T/B top to bottom centering
