Sometimes you gotta celebrate the (extremely) minor victory. Anyone trying to put together a real sharp, centered 1972 Topps set knows the pains of finding certain cards that fit the bill. Ken Boswell In Action, from my Mets, is a wickedly hard card to find anywhere near centered top to bottom (and this is the red streak variation). The curve above his name is always found just a hair away from the top border. He was positioned next to the Hank Aaron IA card on the print sheet, so he shares the same toughness in centering as Hammerin' Hank (try to find a centered one!!), but lacking the star power, he is often ignored, but I'm thrilled to land him...
1972boswellia306.jpg Shoulda dusted him off before scanning.

Overpaying yesterday is simply underpaying tomorrow.
