When you go to sell, just make sure that you have a solid backstory about how it was inside an envelope taped to the underside of the dresser drawer, and just happened to have vibrant colors, razor sharp corners, and perfect centering, despite being 73 years old, and in spite of basically none of them coming out centered without tilt. Plus you can't possibly be bothered with the time and expense to get it graded. And so therefore, there is zero possible chance that it could be a reprint.

Throw in something about your uncle or your old man for good measure...
