Picked up my first vintage card : 1955 Topps Hank Aaron
Pretty excited about this. I was truly shocked how beautiful it was in person and how much the color really popped. The corners are really good on it from what I can tell for a 5.
Can someone with a good eye for the 1955 set tell me how the centering is on this card? Here it is:

Beautiful card...nice. I have that same card in raw, and yes, it is a work of art in hand. I love the colors. Thanks for sharing!

Congratulations, Adam! I'm a huge Hank Aaron fan having been born and raised in Milwaukee. That's a beautiful card.

The '55 Topps Aaron is my favorite card of the home run champ (sorry Barry). Like you said, the color really pops off the card ...

That's a great way to start. Too bad you can't feel the actual card in your hand. Insert smiley face here.

Can someone with a good eye for the 1955 set tell me how the centering is on this card? My trusty JRuler puts centering at 32/68 L/R and 35/65 T/B JRuler is free and takes most of the "guesswork" out of centering
