Some nice 1972 Topps - opinions needed

I haven't done a lot with 1972 Topps, and I just want to make sure the top to bottom centering is good on these. They look really sharp and I'm hoping at least a 9 on the first 5 or its not worth sending in. I think the McCovey and Palmer appear too low for top-bottom centering. What do you think the max grade is with that centering? If you see anything I missed, feel free to post it.

Thanks in advance.

    Without breaking out Jruler, Palmer 7, McCovey 8, and others have a shot at 9 (best guess is 3 of the 5 will actually get it).

    Fixed it. Thanks for the tip.
  • Twins Stars, Krausse, and Palmer look a bit diamond-cut. Maybe that's just my eyes?

    I can see 9s for all of them but Davis

    Palmer and McCovey are centered too low for 9s.

    That being said, they are all really nice cards.

    Commons have a decent shot at 9. Palmer is way off. I think the McCovey has a shot at 9, but likely 8 or 8.5

    Regardless, great cards. You might even hit the elusive 10 jackpot!

    Stay away from the Palmer and Davis IA if you are looking for 9 's only.
