1940 Gum Inc Superman #63 Terror In The Tower

Centering estimate: left border ~15%, right border ~30%, top border ~15%, bottom border ~40% — approximate L/R ratio 65/35 and T/B ratio 30/70, meaning the card runs noticeably short on the bottom and left, a meaningful centering defect. All four corners show visible rounding consistent with heavy handling, with the bottom-left corner appearing the most worn. The surface shows significant overall toning/aging typical of this 1940 set, with some apparent soiling or spotting across the face, and gloss appears largely absent. No obvious hard creases are visible from this photo angle, but the image resolution and angle prevent confident ruling them out; the bottom-right quadrant shows possible light surface disturbance. Age-toning and paper stock brittleness are expected for this 83-year-old gum card set and are not over-penalized, but corner wear and centering together place this squarely in VG (3) territory with a possible slide to GOOD (2) if a hidden crease exists or VG-EX (4) if corners are slightly better than they appear.
