Do you all see a lot of out-of-focus cards in this set?

I have not seen too many out of focus cards, but the Slaughter seems to be one that is slightly out of focus.

Have you?

Thats funny, the Slaughter is the one I own and its out of focus. I wonder if they are all like that.

...Actually , I've found that centering on the '53 Bowmans is as bad as or even worse than any '50's Topps , considering there are only 160 cards in the set...

. I love the tan on Kellner ; he must have just come back up North from Spring training in Florida...

I think so .... at least all the ones I have seen.

Centering is a big issue on this set. Cards 112-128 are really tough to find centered.

Decided to stick with this one (have yet to successfully complete a set other than a player set) and added these today .....

The Minoso is one of the most appealing cards ever created, imo (coincidentally, so is his 54 Red Heart imo) and the Slaughter seemed to be slightlybetter than most I have seen in terms of focus

almost at 50% with these two - which is monumental for this collector

Looks like Enos is stuck in a sand trap!
Peculiar looking sand wedges he's holding.

Nice cards Neal.
