I am looking for opinions on whether this will regrade 5.5 or higher. I want a higher grade for my set. However, I really like this card and it looks great in person. Thanks!


Working on the following sets
1980's and 1990's Topps Baseball BBCE FASC - Cello or Wax Boxes
1952 Bowman US Presidents PSA 7 & up
Pro Football Hall of Fame Indianapolis Colts PSA Registry Set
June 9th Cubs full ticket or stubs - 1981 to 2020
Andre Dawson Topps Basic registry PSA 10's
Mark Grace Topps Basic registry PSA 10's

    Between the top right corner, the snow, and the centering, I think the 4.5 while not a "gift", is the maximum for this card. Presents like a PSA 4 to me.

    I had second thoughts on the corner as well. Although it looks much worse in the scan. I mainly raised the question because looking on eBay I have seen a lot of 5's and above that look just as good as mine. At least to my eye.

    I think it is pretty unlikely in general to have a 4.5 bump to a 5.5

    Crease next to the left of J in John on the front. Faint but it is there and goes to the edge of the card.
    No chance

    nice card, but I wouldn't pay to have it re-graded. Seems like a long shot for a bump.

    I cannot hit curveball. Straightball I hit it very much. Curveball, bats are afraid.

    Good catch. I see that now too. I highlighted it in yellow.

    Thanks, guys. I appreciate the help. I usually deal with ’80s and later cards, which I think is easier to spot flaws. Now I can’t unsee the crease. Lol!

    Thanks,
