Nice. With that card, tilt is usually more of a problem than the centering. Early 1970’s cards in many cases were condition doozies, and this particular one is a poster child for that, IMO.

The 1969 Parker White Letter is a tough variation to grab, so I don't have a problem with it being a tad O/C...but, man, the umps at PSA are really squeezing Tom Terrific's strike zone with this qualifier. The pitch clearly hit the corner of the plate, but they called it a ball anyway...

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

PSA's standard for a 9 is 60/40 to 65/35. I would agree that one could have gone the other way.

Another real tough to find 1972 Topps high number, #699 Bobby Murcer, that is just a tad bit O/C as compared to a straight PSA 9...

A couple more sharp-cornered HOFer cards I picked up for but a fraction of the price straight 9's sell for. The 1973 Topps #190 Bob Gibson is just a tiny bit, harmlessly o/c top to bottom, and the surreally yellow/green 1974 Topps #110 Billy Williams has a small, virtually non-existent amount of obligatory wax/gum residue on the back. The scan makes it look much, much darker than it is in real life. Cool stuff...
