1954 Gilcrest #107 — Roy Delacroix, graded SGC 7, in its holder

Photographed in our own light, unedited beyond cropping. Ask for raw angled shots of any corner or the reverse and we will send them the same day.

The honest description

Seventy-two years old and the red still reads red — the single hardest thing to find in this issue, where almost every example has faded toward brick.

Corners are sharp to the eye and soft only under 10x. The print dot pattern in the portrait is intact with no wax stain on the reverse.

Centering is a touch high, about 55/45 top-to-bottom, which is generous for the set.

In an SGC tuxedo holder, which presents this issue better than any other slab on the market.
