off set card

[Archive]

Posted By: <b>bj</b><p>I have a 1971 Pete Rose card that is off set in the printing. The color ink on the picture side goes all the way to the right with a large white space on the left. Does anyone know if this decreases, increases or does not effect the value?

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>With all due respect this chat board is for baseball cards from Pre-WWII. The answer to your question is "yes" off centered cards are worth less than ones with perfect centering. Please understand though that there are other chat boards for newer baseball cards and questions relating to them. Later today I will delete this thread but wanted to try to help you first....Thanks for your understanding.

Posted By: <b>Gilbert Maines</b><p>You may be able to locate persons who value printing errors more highly than most collectors. I have seen a few that were rather attractive curiousities. Locating persons potentially interested in your card may be best accomplished by listing it on eBay. Put what you consider to be a high reserve on the listing, and if someone buys it you are lucky; if no one reaches the reserve, then you have an idea of what price the current market will support.<br /><br />Please come back if you include prewar cards in your interests. And maybe even if you don't yet.
