Great addition!!! Amazing to see a nice raw MJ out there as Bengu said.
Here is my BGS 8.5 for comparison. I think you may get hit hard on the corners for the top left just as i did for the bottom right. My bigger concern is the L/R centering. It looks close, maybe a hair more to the right that the 8 below with 8.5 centering. Even with 9 edges and 9 surface and 8.5 for both corners and centering you're looking at an 8.5 holder. I think more realistic would be 8 centering, 8 corners, 9 edges and 9? surface (hard to tell). Expect an 8 and hope for an 8.5. BGS always hits you on surface for those old raw fleers. Either way, stunning pick up and enjoy!!!!
