The 7 looks good to me. With that centering I wouldn't think twice about it.

7 all day, these cards are impossible to find centered, to me, in this issue especially, that outweighs marginally superior corners.

7 all the way, the image looks better on it (in addition to the centering). If they weren’t slabbed, I’d be inclined to spend more on the 7 than the 8 anyway, if I were in the market.

The 7 looks high end, the 8 looks to be overgraded a little.
Of course when you magnify the corners on the 7 that card is not without problems. But at arm's length great eye appeal. Last edited by barrysloate; 09-02-2018 at 08:58 AM. |

centering-wise, is great...while the top/bottom centering on mine sucks, at I can live with this one, as it was purchased with a full-set back in the 1980's.
IF / WHEN I choose to upgrade, I'd take the "7" and move the one (below) I currently have: |

I'd buy the "8", because it's bigger.

It’s really not that tough to find a centered copy...one sold last night for like 450.
However, it’s REALLY hard to find one without “snow”.

Thanks again everyone. I ended up pulling the trigger on the PSA 7 for $19,500. I'm not a dealer or one to flip cards so if I overpaid it doesn't bother me. Always wanted a '57 Russell.

I think they all have snow although sometimes it doesn't show on scans depending on the saturation level.
Mine is nothing special but I thought it was relatively light on the snow.
