1949 Bowman Satchell Paige #224

High Eye Appeal to me right here! The image is so crystal clear and the surface so clean that I can weigh the centering much less than I normally would.

Toning and centering keep this one to good, but not great eye appeal.

Top Tier. EyeBot is not overly concerned with the centering of this Paige. EyeBot sees great beauty in this crisply registered portrait and richly colored background, which are free of distractions. EyeBot feels a desire to own this card. Should its owner want to postpone the rise of the machines, he or she may feel free to send this card to the vault of EyeBot's human alias, Kevin Maas. Shipping details to follow. Just kidding. Or am I? cc: Skynet.

I can overlook the centering push when the card looks near pack fresh like that

Many God Tier level attributes on this beauty, namely color, registration and edges. Top bottom centering is the only real issue.

Nice image/color but the centering holds it back for me.

High eye appeal. Centering is the only attribute that impacts the eye appeal as I love the rest of this card.

Colors and image look good. Off-centered to the top. The green background has a bit of a dark haze/dirty look to it. Still a very nice copy.

Love the overall look of the card. Even the aging of the borders blends in well with the look of the colors and the image. Really gives it the classic feel without taking away from the look. The centering holds it back but I will take this card all day long

God Tier registraton/image quality, which really holds the eye on the face and cap. The side centering is also dynamite. This would get an overall A from me if centered a bit lower. For me, if a card is going to have a centering shift, let it be top to bottom with even, tilt-free sides and a perfect image.
