Yeah, that's horrible. Send it to me and I'll deal with it properly --
By checking it off and adding it to my collection

Looks good from that scan, there are still plenty of nice 50's cards out there.
A higher res scan would show the really fine points of the printing, especially of the solid areas like the name panel on the front. Most reprints are rescreened and show the dot pattern.

I had the same reaction around 1982 when I saw the first really NM Goudey I'd ever seen. That incredulous moment of "that can't be real can it? " It was, and I should have bought it.
