Seller guaranteed a numerical grade...I imagine 1 to 1.5...?
I noticed some print lines in the border on the top left, front, which I think are kind of cool. Some other ones have that too.

Great card, sir, soaked or otherwise. A great ballplayer, and by all accounts, a great guy too. My mother was a huge Brooklyn Dodgers fan, having worked at the Brooklyn Naval Shipyard (where my 2nd ship, USS Independence CV-62, was later built) and she went to games at Ebbets Field during WW2. After they moved to LA, and broke her baseball heart, she loved Stan "The Man" and the Cardinals, just up the Mississippi River about 300 miles or so from Memphis.
