Nice - but I've never really been able to get into pink cards...

meathook, I never was into hockey much. Was Danny Grant a good player?

Nice pickup, Meathook! My snipe came in too low on that one

But I did win these off of our very own Bob C. How far are you in the set? Is it registered?

Sweet card. I have a bunch of 72's at PSA right now. I love the design.

Phreaky- that Harper looks to be pushing the centering allowed for a 9. I am still somewhat new to these but is that common for a 9? It is always tough to judge centering with writing down the side of the card, like the 84 topps bb.

Thanks for the kind words, fellas. No registry as of yet. Just trying to collect old North Stars in 9 or higher.

Danny Grant was a decent player, I guess. No Gretzky, of course!

It's not as well centered as I would prefer, but I think PSA uses the "eye appeal" judgement call a lot with this set, because the writing down the side is quite forgiving for off-center cards. A card with solid line borders on all four sides with this centering would look horrible.

Actually, now that I blow up the scan and count pixels, the L-R centering is about 60/40, well within spec for a 9.
