High-grade example of pose #78-5 featuring Hall of Famer John Clarkson of Boston.  Graded EX-MT+ 6.5 by BVG (and using a numbering system known only to Beckett, apparently), the card is sharp and clear with some mild corner wear and light image fading being the primary condition flaws.  Beckett has kindly covered the entire card in a mylar baggie, making it difficult to scan or photograph, or even see, but a close examination reveals an exceptional card that appears would likely fall within the midgrade range if submitted to a grading company that prefers collectors actually see the card in the holder.
