Index grading notes

Centering estimate: left border appears notably wider than right (roughly 70/30 L-R), top and bottom borders appear more even at approximately 55/45 T-B — centering is off but not miscut territory. Corners show visible rounding on all four, most pronounced at the lower-left and upper-right, consistent with a VG card. Surface shows significant toning/age browning across the entire card face which is expected for 80+ year-old paper stock, but also appears to have light soiling or scattered foxing spots mid-card. Gloss is largely gone. No obvious hard creases are visible from this photo, though the image resolution limits certainty about hairline creases; the overall wear pattern and rounded corners point to a PSA 3 (VG) as most likely, with PSA 2 possible if hidden surface creases exist and PSA 4 achievable only if corners are better than they appear.

Centering estimate: left border ~8mm, right border ~5mm, top border ~5mm, bottom border ~6mm — approximately 62/38 L/R and 55/45 T/B, which is acceptable but left-heavy. Corners show light rounding on at least two corners (lower-left and upper-left visible), consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Edges appear reasonably clean with no obvious chips or tears. Surface shows some scattered print speckle/snow typical of this era and some general soiling/toning across the card face, with slight gloss loss; no obvious creases are visible in this photo though the back cannot be assessed. The seller's 'EX' claim is plausible; a solid EX (PSA 5) is the most likely grade, with VG-EX (4) possible if corner wear is more pronounced than visible and EX-MT (6) possible if the surface and corners hold up better on close inspection.
