Would you sub these? 1975 Topps Regular...

both are rack pack fresh...

Nolan Ryan
45/55 approx l/r
two chips under Pitcher logo on surface
photo registry is offset (yellows)
there is a 1mm surface bubble directly over the webbing of the glove


George Brett
32/68 approx l/r
one small surface dent in right side green section
rough cut right and left edges
fish eye bottom right

Maybe I do not truly understand how centering is measured. But. 32/68 would lead me to believe that one border is slightly more than 2 times the other border. Although the left border is obviously smaller than the right, it certainly does not appear to be less than half its size????

I measured left and divided that by total of left + right

I came up with 60/40 centering. I measured the pixels of both the left and right, 32 for left border and 48 for right. I made that into a fraction, i.e. 48/32. I then changed the fraction to a scale of 100 as such:

48/32=x/(100-x) Cross Multiply and the equation changes to
32x=4800-48x Bring x to one side and it becomes
80x=4800 Solve for x
x=60

Plug that back into the fraction and you get 60/40

40/60 on the Brett? Or Ryan?

I would submit both of them Mark. I think you might be surprised by the Ryan.

40/60 on the Brett, Ryan is 45/55

Bosox1976

submit both.

I really like the Ryan!! I would submit both though.

Thanks guys. Feeling encouraged. They are going in.

or make it easier: 32 + 48 = 80

32/80 = .40
48/80 = .60

I think Common Core would say your answer is incorrect, since you didn't use the correct method. This is regardless of whether the answer is correct or not or may be more efficient.

I say both are 8's, maybe you squeak out 1 8.5, but I doubt it.

Take enough Calculus and Differential Equation courses and you will find out that nothing is as easy as it seems! The sad part is that my method is my natural, logical thought process and thus easier to me.

I don't disagree with the result, just pointing out the direction our educational system is heading (after 5 semesters of engineering Calculus myself).

I am right there with you, Chemical Engineering here
