Corners or Centering?

On a Vintage Football card, (57 Topps) what, in your opinion is more important. Better centering, or a little worse centering and sharper corners? As always, thanks for your comments.

    Thanks for the responses. So what I am hearing is that a card with better centering but with some paper loss on a couple of corners, is probably better than one with great corners but a little worse in cenetering. Thanks so much.

    I would agree with centering, but then centering is usually an obsession with me for any card or year.

    centering by far for me
    out rules corners , paperloss, or even a crease for that matter

    Put two cards of equal value you are choosing from on the table. What is the first thing you notice? Centering. That's how I see it.

    Centering is the reason I bought this card.

    Don't get me wrong...I will buy an off centered card with good corners as well......but centering is everyone's fave....

    Thanks for the feedback. When I receive the new card, I will put them both on here and see what you guys think. As always I really appreciate all of your help.
