Beautiful card!! Incredible color, nicely registered, no print dots, sharp corners. Is that your card?

2) I'm not sure if I overpaid for it, but probably did. Anytime you win an auction like this you are, by definition, the craziest bidder in the lot. No one wins by bidding the average price.
3) I have been looking for a Frank Robinson with great color and clarity like this for years.
The centering/tilt issues are minor, but there, and I would rather have bought this in an 8 holder. If it had been, I think I still would have gone for it.
Just had to share with people who would understand the risks, joys, and foolishness of it.

The color, corners, and white borders are blazing !!!!
It's one of the hardest 57's to find in 8 and above. Most 8's are not all that nice...and premium examples go for top bucks.
I have no problem with the grade. Slight oc but not worthy of a qualifier.
Congrats on a nice pu

Congrats on the pickup.

To me it would have been better in a 8 holder but it "looks" better than most 8s san centering.
Easy for me to talk ... I'll never own either

But then we know your eye is one of the very best and most of your collection is high end.
I would show you all my 57 F Robinson..but I don't have one. Yes I'm jealous.
