Index grading notes
Centering: left/right borders appear roughly 60/40 favoring left, top/bottom approximately 65/35 favoring top — acceptable for vintage but not tight. Corners: top-left and top-right corners show mild rounding/softening visible at scan resolution; bottom corners are harder to assess but appear similarly slightly worn. Edges appear reasonably clean with no obvious tears or nicks, consistent with A&BC's characteristic rougher cut which should not be over-penalized. Surface: some light gloss loss is apparent across the image area and there is a faint suggestion of minor handling wear, but no visible creases, staining, or print defects beyond normal vintage print texture; the seller's 'Ex+' claim of no crease is plausible from this photo. The back is unseen, which could reveal creases or paper issues, widening the range downward; graded conservatively as EX (5) point estimate with VG-EX (4) to EX-MT (6) range.
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 a grade ceiling around 5-6. Corners show visible rounding on all four, most pronounced at the lower-left and upper-right, consistent with handling wear. Edges appear rough-cut which is normal for A&BC issues and not penalized. Surface shows moderate gloss loss and what appear to be light handling marks or scuffs, particularly in the red background area upper-left near the bat signal; no obvious crease is visible from this angle but surface dimpling cannot be ruled out. The back is unviewable so any crease, staining, or writing on the reverse cannot be assessed - the range is widened downward to 3 to account for that uncertainty.
Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border marginally wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — centering is acceptable and not grade-capping. The seller note 'READ' in the title likely signals disclosed flaws; the 'Note: corner wear' caption confirms corner issues visible in the scan. All four corners show visible rounding and wear — upper-left and lower-right appear most affected with moderate rounding consistent with a VG to VG-EX range. Surface shows some gloss loss and the watermark obstructs full assessment of the lower-left quadrant, but no obvious creases are detectable from this view. Edges appear reasonably clean for a vintage A&BC card with expected rough-cut texture. Back not visible, and corner closeups are unavailable, so the range is widened accordingly; a crease hidden under the watermark or on the reverse could push this toward a 3.
