1940 Gum Inc Superman #33 The Avalanche

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — centering is acceptable for the grade range. The card shows notable toning and age-related browning/yellowing of the stock throughout, consistent with an 80-year-old card. Corners appear rounded, particularly visible at the upper-right and lower-right, suggesting moderate to heavy wear consistent with a VG to VG-EX range. Surface shows some soiling or foxing spots (visible upper-right area), and gloss appears largely absent. No creases are definitively visible in this photo but the framing/angle obscures fine surface detail; given the overall wear pattern, a crease cannot be ruled out. The black mat framing cuts slightly into corner visibility, adding uncertainty — the true grade could slip to a 2 if a crease is confirmed on back or close inspection.

Centering: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border modestly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — centering is not the primary issue here. The seller explicitly notes creases, and the image confirms visible surface creasing particularly in the upper-left quadrant and along the lower portion of the card; these are grade-defining defects on the PSA scale. All four corners show rounding consistent with heavy handling, and there is evident gloss loss across the surface with some toning/soiling visible. The card appears structurally intact with no tears or paper loss evident, which keeps it out of PR-FR territory, but the combination of multiple visible creases, rounded corners, and significant surface wear firmly places this in the Good (2) to VG (3) range. The back is not visible, which could reveal additional staining or writing.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — centering is not a primary concern here. The seller's title discloses 'wear' which is confirmed: visible surface creasing is apparent across the card face (diagonal crease lines visible in the artwork area), consistent with a VG-range card. Corners show rounding — all four appear soft with no sharp points remaining, consistent with VG to VG-EX range. Gloss loss is evident across the surface. The card shows toning/aging consistent with an 80+ year old gum card. The plastic holder obscures precise corner and edge assessment; range is widened accordingly. No paper loss or tears are apparent, keeping it off the bottom of the scale, but the visible creasing and corner wear place this firmly in the VG (3) neighborhood, with VG-EX (4) possible if the creases are shallower than they appear, and GOOD (2) possible if additional back-side damage exists.
