Default Need help with a 1950 Bowman Ted Williams

Please see the images below and give me feedback based on:

1. Is it real or a reprint? The back certainly looks real, but the front minus the flaw near the upper right corner is nearly flawless.

If a reprint, skip the rest....

2. How would you rate its condition? Beautiful front except just below the upper right corner. Would this be considered paper loss? The back has significant discoloration. Is this staining? wax? Or just age based on the type of stock they used?

3. Based on your experience how do you think grading companies would evaluate this card? Paper loss or big chip on front? Staining? Could an otherwise really nice card for its age automatically be dropped to a 1?

4. Any guesses on what market value may be? What would you consider paying for a card in this condition?

Thanks in advance!
Chris
