This stunning portrait captures the 6-time World Series champion in front of a deep red background toward the beginning of his Hall of Fame career. Some snow and paper/color loss on the front are the main reasons for the card's technical grade, while rounded corners and light edge chipping further explain it. The MC qualifier stems from a short bottom border which has cut the text under the photo in half. The Piedmont back still presents beautifully, and even with its cosmetic flaws, there is still plenty of eye appeal on this important offering.
