Amazing card, obviously, but the color and centering could be better.
L to R centering is unfortunate here. The teal blue doesn't 'pop" like the GT examples. Very strong corners and a nice white border are noteworthy. Still a museum piece and a cornerstone for any collection.
Mantle's image looks great but the color doesn't pop and centering is off.
As the Eye appeal gets higher the centering is key to most people. There is the obvious shift from center but the over all card really is a WOW
SIde centering is the culprit here. Still, a strong eye appeal grade as the all important blue is unmarred and there is minimal detectable tilt-- which plagues so many examples of this iconic card.

Centering kills the look of this card. Might just be the scan but the colour doesn’t pop either…
