JOHN ELWAY (1984 Topps #63)
Centering: Left-right centering is about 60-40, top-bottom centering is nearly perfect. The flaw of note here is that the picture appears to be ever so slightly crooked to the naked eye. Without getting out my protractor, I would say that it is turned about one degree counterclockwise. Corners: One perfect corner, one slightly touched corner, and two corners that have a little more than a touch. Edges: The card's biggest problem lies here. A couple very slight chips are evident, but there is a crimp about a centimeter long on the bottom right hand edge of the card. Back: A very faint wax stain exists, otherwise no significant flaws. Other: Corners and edges would put this card at about a high six, low seven. The crimp and wax stain knock at least one grade and centering problems would leave this card as about a 5.8-6.2 overall.
