    the centering is off top to bottom. If anyone has time is this in the limits of a 10.

    Looks like the top has a bit of a rough cut as well. I think psa over graded this one. Always buy the card, not the number.

    PSA does not deduct for rough cuts
    I don't agree with it but they just don't. And are very consistent too ...

    COPPER is gutter !

    I got 41/59. It barely meets PSA 10 criteria, but it DOES. Many people will avoid the card based on centering, as its centering makes it a low-end PSA 10.

    Some people are more worried about corners, picture focus, etc. This card appears to be really sharp in these respects.

    Card is definitely overgraded, even has a red dot print defect.

    But rest assured, someone will pay big bucks for the insert.

    edit: I saw where NJ said, not worth 4500$ and I thought, yes it is - went to the link - it's 45K!!!!
    That's just plain outrageous!!!

    I don't agree that PSA uniformly does not deduct for rough cuts. I believe it depends on the submitter. I have sent in vintage cards that were unreal - easy 8's+ except for a rough cut. They always come back 6's.

    One of my favorite all-time cards - just a classic "action" portrait. Having said that, I would rather have a sharper 8 at a fraction of this insane price.

    a card that old, and in that great,awesome shape.....a little centering issue would be the least of my worries on this card!!! the card is beautiful!!!considering the age!!! look at the card again and just imagine whoever pulled that card did'nt flip the card against the steps or put it in the spokes of their bikes. i think, sometimes, people nit pic these older cards!!!!

    This gives me the idea for a daytime soap:

    Grades of Our LIves

    Think of all the excitement and intrigue.

    Storylines like: The Grader of Death, The WigWam Incident, The Case of the Stolen Scans and What Ever Happened to Aknot?... Just to name a few.

    Stone193 will be played by Tom Selleck.

    Who will play you?

    Beautiful card, but I'm just as happy with the one that I paid around $60 delivered. Obviously my choice for the best card ever made.
