I just finished my 50's Mantle run (I mean baseball cards are practically synonymous with Mantle!!!) and several were probably among the tougher post war cards to find with great centering. Especially when one considers how expensive Micks get with even a modicum of eye appeal. Sellers with a good one know they can ask high and eventually a collector who wants eye appeal and has scoured the globe for a good example. I just paid more than double VCP for my 57 because I needed one centered!
