Cards that are tough to find centered.
I'm a sucker for nicely centered cards. Cobb's E93 Standard Caramel issue seems to be commonly found off-centered to the right. Post up a card that was difficult, or has been difficult, for you to find nicely centered.

When I was working aggressively on the 1938 Goudey set, the card #271 Joe Vosmik was nearly impossible to find without a tilt. Most were very pronounced, but it seemed like the card was nearly impossible to find without even a slight tilt.
Some examples:    I've never examined a second series uncut sheet, but the only thing I could think of was that maybe the card was actually tilted on the sheet or something. Nearly every example I've ever seen has this tilt, even if its ever-so-slight. -Al

Sorry post war and Hockey....but there are many...advanced collectors and even TPG's that don't know what "centered" is on 54 Topps Hockey. Dave.

T205 Kirb White
Not only is it a fairly difficult card in the set to obtain in any condition, I can tell you from many, many years of experience, that the T205 Kirb White, for whatever reason, is a very difficult card to find even close to centered. There are very few high grade examples around. The card in the REA set break-up, was the most centered example I've seen, in a PSA 5 or higher.

I think I will nominate a set. A lot of examples come to mind of the E220s.

Here's a few tough ones, although all not perfectly centered, and all not exactly "prewar"...
