Grade on this Clemente?

What do you think the print line running vertically just to the right of his face would cause this to grade? Thanks for any thoughts!

    7. See top left corner. Nice centering, though.

    Always looking for Mantle cards such as Stahl Meyer, 1954 Dan Dee, 1959 Bazooka, 1960 Post, 1952 Star Cal Decal, 1952 Tip Top Bread Labels, 1953-54 Briggs Meat, and other Topps, Bowman, and oddball Mantles.

    I'm thinking 7.5. Print dots, top left corner, print line.
    Still a nice card.

    I agree, at least a 7 possibly higher on a good day...

    psa 7.5 the top left corner will stop it from a 8 holder.

    Along with several others, 7.5. I think the centering is great and graders will look at the corners and the print line won't be a issue. Doug

    Wake up on the right side of the bed = PSA 7.5 to 8
    Wake up on the wrong side of the bed = PSA 7 to 7.5
    Wake up in the middle = PSA 7.5

    PSA 7.5. Before half grading that's a PSA 8. Still should be.

    I don't think the upper left will hurt it on its own, but combined with the print it may. I have a nice PSA 8 with the same spot in the upper left, it is often seen on that card.

    I would say an 8. I believe mine has more print dots and received an 8
