This is the type of card I like to refer to as 'the reality of the wax pack.' Sure, according to the grading standards PSA established for themselves, the card is technically off-centered. No argument there, but this is undoubtedly what 99.9% of the cards coming out of Topps packs looked like in the summer of '64...imperfectly centered. However, the snow-white corners are sharp and beautiful, and I would never look at this quartet of sluggers and immediately think, "Hey, that card is off-center!!" No frickin' way!!

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
