BID PER WHAT YOU SEE IN THE PHOTO, NOT THE AI GENERATED TITLES AND DESCRIPTIONS! Baseball Jim Pendleton 1954 Topps #15 Milwaukee Braves
This is an original 1954 Topps baseball card featuring Jim Pendleton of the Milwaukee Braves, designated as card number 15 in the set. The 1954 Topps collection is iconic for its horizontal layout, featuring a dual-image design on the front that includes a large color portrait alongside a smaller black and white action illustration. This card displays Pendleton in his Milwaukee Braves uniform with the team’s Native American profile logo in the upper right corner and a black facsimile signature across the center. The reverse side is printed in orange and green ink, containing Pendleton’s 1953 Major League batting and fielding records, biographical information, and a "You’re the Ump!" illustrated trivia comic. This is an ungraded vintage card representing Pendleton’s second year appearing in a Topps set.
Condition report:
This card is in ungraded, raw condition and is housed in a BCW semi-rigid plastic holder. The front centering is relatively good, showing a slight bias toward the top and left borders. The reverse side is more significantly off-center toward the top and left edges. The corners show light softening and minor wear typical for a mid-grade vintage card of this era. The edges are generally clean, with some minor chipping visible along the top edge of the reverse side. The front surface displays excellent color retention and registration. The reverse shows expected light toning and age-related discoloration of the cardboard stock. No significant creases, surface scratches, or paper loss are observed.
