Do the right and left edges look a little wavy to you, or are my eyes playing tricks on me? It's not my card, but I am strongly considering making it my card.

    I see wavy also....but I have pretty much given up trying to determine trimmed card from online scans and pics. Good if you decide to go for it! image

    slight miscut from halfway down to bottom on lower left....sometimes that cut will pass through grading, sometimes not.

    The left edge looks suspect. I'd definitely factor it into your price considerations.

    Appears a little crooked.

    I'll say factory miscut as well. I have a great 61 Aaron with the same problem, didn't get a grade.
    The best pitch to start a hitter off with is always strike one.

    The price is by no means a bargain, but looked to be priced fairly for a card so clean and centered.
    Regrettably, I guess I will pass on it. Thanks to all who offered opinions.

    I think this card is at the end of the sheet. I had a tough time finding it in a 7 and the 8s don't sell cheap. The raw one I sent in came back miscut. I never checked the pops but I suspect its low.

    On the front, lower left looks strange.

    And on the back look below the "MORE THEN 75 INNINGS" on the right border. Card takes a quick turn to the left on the border.

    Card looks very trimmed.


    Edited to add, on the front, look right above Drysdale's hat on the left border. It looks like a quick right turn there.

    The card doesn't look too bad to me... here's an 8 I used to have. I bought mine raw and submitted it. Scroll to bottom to see it.
