The eye appeal demonstrated by the example offered here is better that the vast majority of its peers encapsulated with the PSA 1 designation. Honest corner wear and multiple creases have not diminished the impact of Wagner's regal portrait. The viewer's concentration on the image is enhanced by near perfect centering. The instantly recognizable image remains sharply focused, rendered in rich color that rivals any of its brethren.
What "poetic license" this writer used. I know it's a t206 Wagner and this may be blasphemy, but that is one butt-ugly card especially because of that brutal crease going through his left eye. If I had an extra $100,000 laying around for baseball cards, I'd rather wait for a better t206 Wagner or buy something else. I don't mind imperfections in baseball cards, but not in the facial area - for me the face on the card has to be clean or no bid from Steve, even for a Holy Grail t206 Wagner - LOL
