crack and sell it raw would seem the best option.

Edges are fine. The 1956 series is notorious for that "rough cut" look. I would be worried if it DIDN'T look like that! I have no idea what to value it at. I know cards that look better than their grades usually command a premium. Just thinking about what to do with it.

Looks like water damage and maybe some paste residue?

Not a bad card at all.

Nice "1" Bobby, I agree that you'd do better selling it raw and accurately describing the issues on the back.

Steve, that is exactly what it looks like to me too. That it might have been scrapbooked one time along time ago. You have to tilt it in the light to see some some of faint glazing look to it. But it is hardly noticeable at all unless at a certain angle.
