1966 A&BC Batman Black Bat #14

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (~60% right-weighted), top border slightly larger than bottom — approximate L/R ratio 60/40, T/B roughly 55/45; centering is off but not severely miscut. Corners: the two visible corners (bottom-left and bottom-right) show light rounding consistent with EX range; top corners are partially obscured by glare/holder but appear similar in wear. Surface: gloss appears reasonably intact with no obvious creases visible from this angle, though A&BC stock is thinner than Topps and creases can hide in flat photography. Edges appear clean with no major chipping. The off-center left-right lean is the primary grade limiter here, pushing toward EX (5) rather than EX-MT (6); without a back view or corner closeups the range cannot be tightened further.

Centering estimate: left border appears notably narrower than right (~70/30 L/R), top and bottom borders appear roughly 55/45 T/B - off-center but not severely miscut, no adjacent card printing visible. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners (lower-left and upper-left most visible), consistent with a VG-EX range card. Surface shows some general toning/aging typical of A&BC stock from this era, with some apparent light soiling or wear; no obvious hard crease is visible but the plastic sleeve obscures fine surface detail. The CoMC watermark and sleeve glare prevent confident assessment of gloss retention and potential light creasing, warranting a widened range.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (approximately 70/30 L-R), top border slightly wider than bottom (roughly 55/45 T-B) - off-center but not miscut. All four corners show visible rounding and wear, consistent with heavy handling over decades. Surface shows significant toning/aging across the card face with what appears to be light surface creasing or wrinkling visible in the upper-left quadrant and along the left edge; gloss is largely lost. Edges are rough-cut as expected for A&BC issue (not penalized), but show fraying. The combination of rounded corners, gloss loss, apparent surface crease, and overall heavy wear puts this squarely in the VG (3) range, with VG-EX (4) as the optimistic ceiling if the crease is only a printing fold and corners are better than they appear, and GOOD (2) as the floor if the surface crease proves deeper on inspection.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (~60/40 L-R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T-B) — centering is off but not severely miscut. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners (lower-left and upper-left appear most worn), consistent with a VG card. Surface shows general toning and age-related gloss loss typical of vintage A&BC stock; there appears to be light creasing or surface wear in the mid-card area though the photo resolution makes it difficult to confirm a hard crease. Edges appear somewhat rough but this is normal for A&BC cuts. Overall condition reads VG (3) to VG-EX (4) range; the corner rounding and probable surface wear push this toward the lower end of that band.
