1971 Topps Baseball Set Collectors- Card Centering Question
I'm at the point in my collecting where I probably won't pursue trying to complete anymore baseball card sets due to the expense. I'm going to put together lower grade Topps Football sets form 1970 and 71; plus, a 1-263 1972 collection. For my baseball card sets, I'm working on upgrades, particularly my 71 set.
I originally began collecting it as a vg/ex set, but I can never leave well enough alone, it turned into an overall ex-mint endeavor with 29 graded. Centering wasn't much of a priority until recently, now I'm going back and upgrading certain cards. I can live with 60/40 centering side to side and 70/30 top to bottom in near-mint condition. However, there are certain cards in the set that are difficult to find even with those requirements, not to the mention those which are subtly slant cut. Some of this would be eliminated if I were to go after cards graded 8 or above, but I cannot pay those prices.
So, here's the question: which cards in the 1971 Topps Baseball set have you found to be difficult to find centered, stars and commons alike?
Happy collecting!
