What do you prefer, off-center with sharp corners or?

I also have a Mantle auto from his rookie year. Thinking of sending that in too.

Weird. I got these two in person at a show on Long Island in the 80's and they look nothing like yours. I forget specifically what year it was, but I'd guess around 1983.

When I was starting to collect, most of the cards from 1985 Topps are so off-centered, I did not give it much thought how important centering is. With collecting as polarized as it is, I've seen large differences in pricing between off-centered and centered cards. For the most part, I'm in the sharp corner, off centered preference camp. However, with a few cards like '52 Topps high numbers, with all prices being equal and condition about the same, I'll choose the centered one over the off-centered one.
