Slight bow in the card makes the pic a bit funny.
How much does the print line effect the grade ?
Care to guess the grade ?

    PSA 6 (st) for back stain. If it were centered and you asked for a min grade, you might get a PSA 7 (pd).

    PSA generally does not qualify 52 Bowmans with the ST qualifier.

    With that said, the print line on the front will take that card to a 5.

    Good for you.

    If better centered, it would probably get a PSA 6. As long as the penny pack cards don't have excessive wax, I've seen them in EX/MT holders and in NM holders with very mild staining. With similar print lines, the highest I've seen them is a PSA 6. That being said, with the centering and print line on yours, you're looking at a lock PSA 5.

    IMO, without the print line and if the card was centered better, I would give it a 6 based upon the bottom left corner. However, with the print line and the l/r centering, I'd go down to a 4.5. I hope I am wrong.
    STAY HEALTHY!

    Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.

    Maybe I am too conservative however with my past experience with early bowmans you might be looking at a 3.5 to 4 at bestStill a very nice card.

    I've seen card's with similar print lines in 8 holders over the years.
    I believe PSA has way tightened up their standards on the PL's in the last 15 years.

    There's an Aaron RC in a PSA 8 or PSA 9 holder (I can't remember the grade) without a qualifier floating around out there with a bad print roller mark like your Musial card.

    Nice Musial. Looks like a PSA 6 to me.
