Most cards are between VG/EX and EX/MT, with the most notable outliers being the Koufax and Eddie Mathews cards (see below). A few others have wear with that range, but centering drops them lower on the technical grade. Average condition is EX. Key cards:

#4 Al Kaline HOF EX
#24 Hal Newhouser HOF VG/EX
#31 Warren Spahn HOF EX
#100 Monty Irvin HOF wear consistent with ex, VG due to centering
#123 Sandy Koufax HOF rookie POOR spot of paper loss just left of center top, possibly a surface bubble that popped during printing, that the yellow ink bled into. Also a spot of extra material that can be seen against the "her" in "pitcher"
#155 Eddie Mathews HOF MISCUT/FAIR front is extremely off center, and on the top edge of the back you can see a sliver of the next card for the miscut. Minimal corner and edge wear, but there is a tiny spot of paper loss just over the player's front shoulder
#189 Pill Rizzuto HOF VG/EX
#210 Duke Snider EX
