Default Teddy!

Can't believe its the only Ted I now own. Hope I can get to like the 70/30 t-b centering. Side/side just fine. Tough issue for centering..

Great card. IMO, one of Teddy's nicest cards. I recently had to "settle" for a less than perfectly centered version, but I'm confident you'll love the colors and overlook the 70/30.

So pumped about this card, forgive the 1951 in this section; I often wondered over the years if I'd ever come across one of these that was centered and focused. Just got to do a nice scan of it...

That’s an awesome looking “4”.

Matty, I'd take that 4 over most 7s. Just gorgeous. That should go nicely with your 52. Congrats buddy.

Why the 4 ? Surely not corners or edges. Micro crease?

No wrinkles or creases. In my experience it's just a good old fashioned under-grade; have had it happen a few times over the years. Not selling it, though, so can't see springing for a review. If I cracked it raw and sent it in ten times, probably comes back a 5 half the time, maybe six times, otherwise a 4.5.

Thank you, homie! Definitely passed on many a poorly centered or blurry 7 over the years, waiting the right card out
