Selling Tips
Do not grade this card; the staining and centering will result in a low technical grade that won't cover the grading fees. Use keywords like 'Hall of Fame', 'Vintage Pittsburgh Pirates', and 'High Grade Potential' should be avoided. List as 'Authentic Vintage' and mention the specific stain to avoid returns.
