I value centering quite a bit on 50's and 60's cards. It seems that as the years go by I have to upgrade those 85/15's or worse to at least 60/40 especially side to side. Funny though, I can stand bad centering top to bottom if the border is on top but if there is little or no border on top, I can't stand it as I think the card looks terrible.
For pre-war I am more lenient and even more so if the card is rare.
In general, I will always value centering over sharp corners.
Nice topic, Thanks, Michael
