Simon Nicholls stares right down the barrel of the camera in this intimidating pose of the Athletics infielder batting. His last name is missing an "L" on the card and on the SGC holder, both mistakes having gone uncorrected. Centering is slightly south and west on the canvas, but sharp edges and decent corners balance out the look. Minor staining and light paper/color loss explain the card's technical grade. The Sweet Cap back is centered west on the canvas, with tobacco staining especially prevalent along the left edge. But this card has tremendous eye appeal, allowing you to stare directly at the subject.
