Another toughie off my list. Corners only graded 3 which I think is pretty harsh. But I got it for the centering. Other grades are: centering 8.5; edges 7.5; surface 7.

Excited to get this one in hand. One of my favorites from the 50's.

Another in a long line of sharp cards I've accumulated with qualifiers...
1970aaron500psa8oc.jpg It's a touch o/c top to bottom, but before people started putting cards in slabs, nobody would've ever thought there was something 'wrong' with it...and I got it for a song, which is beautiful!!

I couldn't agree more, Lou.
I think that is definitely the most centered copy I have seen to date. Nice P/U, STG.

Well done! That's a tough card to find with great centering.

Thanks Lou. I really thought this would be one of the last two or three I’d need given the centering issues and cost of well-centered examples, but things worked out. I have been working on this set for a VERY long time so it’s nice to see patience rewarded!

Haven't visited for a while, got this in the mail this week, so I guess I'll leave it here.
