As another self-admitted "centering freak", it's interesting to see everyone's take on which cards are the toughest to find centered, and of course it's fun to see all the cards. Thanks for allowing some postwar cards on this side of the forum, Leon.
I do not own one, and I'm surprised this one hasn't been mentioned, but the 1952 Topps Eddie Mathews card is notoriously off center, if not miscut. This example was posted back in 2015 on the BST for just over $5K. Like a cheapskate, I sent the seller a slightly lower offer while someone else bought the card for asking price in the meantime. I am still kicking myself over this one, and I even saved a scan to remind myself about the opportunity lost. Talk about a cardboard unicorn: https://i.imgur.com/VyZC7cM.jpg Here's a few examples that were already mentioned, all picked up over the years with an attention to centering: https://i.imgur.com/QgHkEM1.jpg https://i.imgur.com/cRYi4JQ.jpg https://i.imgur.com/4fdJzA7.jpg The Clemente RC isn't that tough ;) https://i.imgur.com/B3y0E4o.jpg |

Very nice, Tomi! That Clemente is beautiful.

These are hard to find centered and often time borders trimmed off

Funny, even on the centered Banks Rookies, the font at the top of the card looks like it's flinching back from the oncoming cutting machine blades. :D |

Nice '52 Bowman Chuck. Gotta be one of the toughest postwar cards to fond centered.
Ian - Love that '58 Topps Aaron. ;) Not only is it centered, but a very clean green background to boot. That was a tough one to let go. Here are a few post war that took me a while to find nicely centered. |

Vast majority of these Gehrigs are off center.
