Index grading notes

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 70/30 L-R), top and bottom borders appear more balanced at approximately 55/45 T-B — centering is off but not catastrophically so. Corners show visible rounding on all four, consistent with heavy handling typical of an 83-year-old card at this grade level. Surface shows notable toning/yellowing across the card face, staining spots (particularly upper center area and lower portion), and general gloss loss throughout. Edges appear rough but this is normal for the era's production standards; no trimming is suspected. No obvious hard creases are visible in this photo, but surface wear and soiling are significant enough to place this card in the VG to VG-EX range, with the rounding and staining pulling it toward the lower end around PSA 3.

Centering estimate: left border ~8mm, right border ~5mm, top border ~5mm, bottom border ~6mm — approximately 60/40 L/R and 55/45 T/B, which is decent for the set but the perspective angle introduces uncertainty. Corners show visible rounding on all four, most pronounced at bottom-left and top-right, consistent with a VG to VG-EX range. Surface shows significant overall toning/yellowing across the entire card face which is heavy even by 1940 standards, and there appears to be some light soiling or foxing spots particularly in the upper left quadrant. Gloss appears largely absent. No obvious hard creases are detectable from this photo, but the surface toning and rounded corners point toward a PSA 3 as the most likely grade; a crease hiding in the image could push to PSA 2, while cleaner corners than they appear might support a 4.
