Ethan, you need to start off showing a card in these threads you start? It's ok, you are amongst friends and a few grouches.

Pete - that is a wonderful early Ruth card.

And I don't know about perfect centering but this one is well centered. From our BST no less...(and shown many times before)

Nice Pete. This E121 is pretty well centered. This E220 is not centered, but it’s one of the most centered examples I have seen.

I knew Sam would be chiming into this thread. When I think of perfect centering, I think of his collection.

Perfect centering makes up for any other flaws that might be present on a card, as seen in this E254 Colgan's Chip of Reulbach.

Next question...do any of you really care?

Totally agree. Pete, members were asked to share their cards in this thread yet you chose to chime in with a negative remark.

Why don’t you save your comments for a thread which better fits your post!

Some amazing cards here. Real cherries. Creme de la creme. Diamonds in the rough. I can go on but words do no justice here. I’ll let the cards do the talking.

Hi guys! This is my kind of thread. I no longer own these cards, but I was a centering junkie there for quite a while.
