I'm really happy with this one. Very nice for a 7.

    I always though this is the only issue when a slight fuzzy corner doesn't hurt it's eye appeal. Amazing card!

    There's a guy who knows his stuff! Yes, those burlap borders make eye appeal very affordable. You can get centered HOFer cards in this set in PSA 7s and 8s that hit the eye like mint cards.

    Gorgeous Mick; clean card right there.

    +3. Exactly what I was thinking when I opened up the thread. Good centering with slightly fuzzy corners on a '68 can make for a good buy!
    STAY HEALTHY!

    Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.

    Looks nicer than almost all the 8's I've seen.

    Thanks for the kind words, all. Agreed with the comments regarding '68's in general. If there is minor softness in a corner, it can blend right in. Makes it difficult to buy raw on eBay though.
