Al,
According to the 2008 SCD catalogue: "The John Bateman card was apparently never distributed publicly and is among the rarest baseball cards of the 1960s."

Right now my white whale is the 1957 Topps Brooks Robinson RC. I am down to needing 5 for the set, and this is the big dog. I only buy graded if forced, and there are not that many examples of mid-grade (4-5) out there, and there is not much that is raw. My focus is now on this card...

Um...yeah...that is one I would take...
 Great card Mint...A third of my set is exactly that shape...sharp and a bit off center, including my Mantle. The rest is in that 4/5 shape with a few fillers. I like my sets to be consistant, so I should be looking for cards like yours...thanks for the drool...but pocket book (wife, lol) will keep me from that one! haha.
