It's pretty common on that card, I just pulled one earlier this week. Someone posted an uncut sheet a year or so ago when I was questioning that one as well and Topps just messed up on the sheet border. There's another card or two in this set that it impacts as well, IIRC.

looking for Topps 71-72 hi's-62-53-54-55-59, I have these sets started
The reason you got all the miscuts? A beautifully centered MONTANA is awaiting you in the next pack.

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.
Is that spot on the Randy White on the card or your scanner?
In a "9" you might get $25.00. In a "10"? $150.00+

Top 4 cards were off center but the left to right centering cleared up on the bottom 6 cards. One was also centered nicely top to bottom but the others were slightly off.
1 decent card, 1 missing card and the usual suspects...
I always love seeing the Bob Baumhower card. He is the owner of a few restaurants, Baumhower Wings, in Central Alabama. Been there a few times and a great place to watch Alabama Football!
The first big pack of the group, a '70 wax pack (2nd series as it turns out)
This pack was awesome, other than the gum card (on front) and some minor wax on the back (of a HOFer no less) all the cards in this pack were well centered. A couple of stars in there too plus a beautiful last card (#263) of the set!
Sadly, the Bobby Bell looks like it's miscut on the back and the top corners are a little rough
Wow, those are some sharp looking cards. Ever since I was a kid watching him, I always wondered "who the hell would name their kid HAVEN"? If I only knew what was to come! Lol

3 - 4 in 1 cards in this pack, wasn't expecting that! One badly damaged by the gum, the others in nice shape but off center.
This pack had really sharp cards but all suffered from either centering issues or tilt issues or both! Still may be a few worth submitting though. I love seeing nice clean black borders even if they are on the back of cards!
Another wrapper for my collection as well. With this pack I've opened at least one wax pack from my birth year up until wax packs pretty much disappeared!
Buncom - what a sad story ... died at age 29. (The morning of Opening Day in 1969).
BTW ... his grandson will be playing DB at Stanford next year. Edited to add: He died 09/14/69 ... I wonder when the above card was issued?

Nice hits on the Elway!
Kiss me twice.....let's party.
Too bad that Elway didn't have the same centering as the Nelms card! Again, thanks for sharing.
Yea, then I'd have two of them I would be happy to submit!! Still might, they are probably worth it.

Galena, IL is one of my favorite places.
All the '84 Wax packs came from there as well.
I'll just the scans do the talking...
Most of the centered cards were almost miscut on the back
The reason you got all the miscuts? A beautifully centered MONTANA is awaiting you in the next pack.

No stars, but a couple nice cards...
Next, a normal pack of '81 Wax from BBCE
Very little star power and again only a couple really nice cards...
Edit: Shoot, see the 2nd pack was posted just ahead of my good luck message.
Only a couple nice cards, a Newsome did show up in pack #2 but mostly just off center stuff.
Pack #1
Pack #2
Pack #3
Some beautiful cards in this pack including a very nice OJ
Only one really nice card in this one...
A really nice Randy White and a couple of decent team cards...
In a "9" you might get $25.00. In a "10"? $150.00+

It's on the card, looks like a common "defect"

Some minor star power did show up though.

Some pretty sharp cards in this pack, but only some minor start power.

The Charlie Taylor has the wax on the back.

I was thinking about that myself as I was adding the wrapper to my collection. There was no insert card in this pack!

Nice boobie!!

I see what you did there--nicely done!!!
Is that Ben Davidson or Salvador Dali?!?!?!

Yeah--imagine pulling an OJ--that would have been a KILLER
