Lets see your best centered 52 Topps cards.

I don't think we have a Jackie yet. A little high right, but not bad.

Not as nice of a copy as yours, Sean, but still glad I was able to snag it.

That's a handsome Herm. Well done!

Note how the eye is immediately drawn to the razor-sharp lower left corner .

Thanks, Sean.

It has some wrinkling in the lower left which can be seen on the right in the back scan but it's not too bad and is real hard to see on the front.
I got it amazingly cheap, imo, (likely due to the wrinkling) but still surprised, tbh, I got it regardless.

Here's my Jackie. It looks like it got rubbed on a sidewalk. And I say this from experience; not with this particular card, but I remember dropping cards when I was a kid and then sliding them across the pavement while trying to pick them back up.

I remember doing the same thing with hockey cards.
At school, we also played "scramble" where some kid would just toss a bunch of cards into the air and the rest of us would try and grab as many as we could. The majority of the time it was done on asphalt too.

I think you guys will appreciate this one. They're not all perfect 50-50, but they're all damn near impossible to find.
