Hi All - I have just started building a 1954 Topps set in lower condition (think PSA 3 without the PSA holders). Does anyone have any concerns over the authenticity of this card? It seems like it's centered awfully nicely and I'm concerned about a possible reprint with artificial aging.

Looks 100% fine. And would grade around a 3 with the crease that is shown in the photos.
And just so you know, when you are looking at other raw 1954s, you will never see a reprint or counterfeit with the rough cut edges that this example has. The rough cut is common on 1954 Topps cards and is how they were factory cut and issued by Topps.
Good luck with your set!

That is a great looking Kaline. The eye appeal is three grades higher than the technical grade. 100% real as Smith just said.
Thanks for the opinions, guys. I think I'll give this one a shot.
Hope you got that. Great eye appeal.
the problem when you ask for help on a card ... you pretty much lower your odds of getting the card, by letting everyone know of it :-)
and 1/2 the people that tell you "hope you get it" ... don't mean it :-)
Bid twice....jk! I'm on the half that does mean "good luck"!
