+1. It does look to me like paper loss, which usually relegates a card to no better than fair, even if the paper loss is on the reverse (which neither I nor my '56 Kahn's Frank Robinson agrees with, by the way!). Eye appeal will often, if perhaps not consistently, trump technical grade. See the recent sale of the 1939 R303 Goudey Premium Ted Williams by Mike Wheat, which had been graded VG, due to light staining, but appeared near mint--$1,675.
Highest regards,
