Man, am I psyched!!

The 1969 Clemente is always a monster of a card to find centered in high grade, and this fantastic example looks just about perfect to me. And it cost less than 10% of what straight 9's (with slightly better top-to-bottom centering) have been going for lately. I jumped at it!!!!

(For kicks, check out the PSA Auction Prices Realized site and look at all of the PSA 9 OC Clementes. Every one of them is falling off the right side of the card. None even come close to the centering on this guy.)

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
