    Top 4 will be a 7 to 7.5 the bottom might pull an 8.

    It's hard to tell from those scans but my estimate is as follows:

    Garver - 6 or 7 depending on the extent of that damage on the lower left corner
    Ennis - 6
    Freeman - 6.5 due to notching on the right border
    Wilson - 7 with a chance for an 8 depending on how sharp the corners are
    Crandall has the best chance to 8 out of all of them. Again, I can't see the corners well enough to give a difinitive opinion. Take a 10x loupe and look for corner wear. Good luck!

    Afternoon,

    What he said...except is that a little corner touch/bump on the top right corner of the Wilson? If so VG-EX 4/EX 5. And I lean towards a 7 on the Crandall!

    Smitty, Check sent today !!!!

  • Sorry...got my G.O.D. glasses on


    Garver==6 Bottom left corner bothers me.

    Ennis==6 possibly as low as a 4.5. Bottom corners have issues and suspect scratch/bubble/wrinkle near Ennis' mouth

    Freeman==6 possible lower. Looks like a rubber band mark on the right border

    Wilson==7 Maybe a 7.5 depending on the corners. Always loved the messed up picture on that card.

    Crandall==8 Best of the bunch.
    Next MONTH? So he's saying that if he wins, the best-case scenario is that he'll be paying for it two weeks after the auction ends?

    Forget blocking him; find out where he lives and go punch him in the nuts. --WalterSobchak 9/12/12

    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.

    << <i>.........Wilson=7.0 (What's the deal with the Jim Abbott pose?.............. >>



    From Wikipedia:

    Wilson's 1958 baseball card, Topps No. 213, showed him in a truly bizarre pose. The company painted out the natural background of the pictures that year and, in a photo showing Wilson swinging his bat, painted the bat out of the picture too--showing Wilson looking as if his right arm were amputated a few inches below the shoulder.

    Agree with these grades. Yeah, that Wilson card is kind of creepy.

    Ennis is definitely a 6...lower left looks rough for sure on it.
    Garver= 6
    Freeman= 7
    Wilson= 7
    Crandall= 7

    I think most guys are spot on with the grades. But this post just reminds me what a good looking set '58 Topps is. If only Stan Musial had a card in it, it would've been perfect.
    2.5 is pretty much my speed.

    7 across the board except Ennis which will probably go around 6 or 6.5 which I think is pretty darn good as those 58s had the worst stock ever as far as the fronts are concerned.
