Half of the 2 Buy It Now listings tracked are asking between $336 and $545, median $440.
Shaded band is the middle half of live Buy It Now asking prices, weekly intervals; the line is the median. Auctions are excluded - a climbing bid is not an asking price. The scale follows the asking prices, so a sale well outside them is pinned to the edge rather than flattening the band.middle halfconfirmed salebest offer, at its cap

1940 Gum Inc. Superman #21 The Runaway Horse - Centered - No Creases
Estimated grades are this site’s opinion, derived from the seller’s photo and expressed on the PSA scale. Not affiliated with or endorsed by PSA; not a guarantee of any grading outcome.
Estimated grade: 2 (2–3) · MEDIUM confidence · asking $231.10
Centering estimate: left/right borders appear approximately 70/30 favoring left, top/bottom roughly 60/40 - off-center but not severely miscut. Multiple visible creases are confirmed and clearly evident in the photo, including what appears to be a significant diagonal crease running through the lower left and mid-card area, consistent with a grade-capping defect. Corner wear is substantial with rounding visible on all accessible corners. Surface shows general gloss loss, toning, and soiling consistent with 80+ years of age. The COMC watermark partially obscures fine surface details but the crease damage is severe enough to anchor this in the GOOD (2) to VG (3) range; the quantity and severity of creases push the estimate toward the lower end.
Estimated grade: 4 (3–5) · MEDIUM confidence · asking $649.00
Centering estimate from photo: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top and bottom borders appear roughly even (~50/50 T/B) — centering is acceptable for VG-EX range. Colors are genuinely bold and vivid for a 1940 card. No creases are visible from this single front image, consistent with seller's claim. Corner assessment is limited by the slight camera angle, but all four corners appear to show at least moderate rounding — consistent with honest wear at the VG-EX level; sharp corners would push toward EX (5). Surface shows some paper grain/texture typical of this era but no obvious staining or major print defects. Without a back image and close corner shots, the range must remain wide; this card most likely grades PSA 4 (VG-EX), with a realistic ceiling of 5 (EX) if corners prove sharper than they appear, and a floor of 3 (VG) if any hidden crease is revealed under submission scrutiny.
