Here's a #181 Ruth that has pretty good centering. In my experience, looking at these cards for about the last year and a half or so, I've actually seen more centering problems with the #53 (yellow) and #149 (red) Ruth cards from the set. It's all relative though; in fact generally speaking 1933 Goudeys seem to me to have less centering problems than many other major baseball card sets. (For example, when I look through listings of T206 cards that I might be interested in, I typically reject about half of them as not being centered well enough for my taste, whereas with 1933 Goudeys it is more like 1 out of 10, at most.) Might be an optical illusion of some sort, due to the width of the borders and so on, but that is how it appears to me.
