Graded 60 EX 5 by SGC. The offered 1912 E136 Home Run Kisses Roy Castleton is the only such example to have been graded by either PSA or SGC. This crease-free antiquity reveals only light corner wear and surface soiling commensurate with the technical grade. The Bardell Sepia back is clean and problem-free. Of particular note, Castleton was the first member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormon) to play in the major leagues, proving this to be quite a find among such niche collectors.

According to the population reports of both grading services, of the (104) combined Home Run Kisses judged by the grading services this specimen shares the grading tier with fourteen other examples with only two better.
