Condition: Good
There are no major flaws on this card beyond a reasonable amount of wear, which one should expect when talking about a card that is now 64 years old. Stallcup had a very nice run from '48-51, during which time he was the every day shortstop for the Reds and twice led NL shortstops in fielding percentage ('50 and '51). Stallcup has one of the darker wiki pages that I've come across while doing this blog. If you're interested, here's a link, but it's not going to brighten your day.
