1966 A&BC Batman Black Bat #18 — Raw

Centering estimate: left border ~5mm, right border ~3mm, top border ~4mm, bottom border ~5mm — approximately 60/40 L/R and 55/45 T/B, which is not severe but the right edge is notably tighter. Corners are the primary concern: all four corners appear rounded or blunted, consistent with handling wear, with the bottom-right corner showing the most visible rounding. Surface shows gloss loss and what appears to be a light crease or stress line running diagonally in the lower-left quadrant, visible even through the CGC watermark obstruction. Edges appear reasonably intact for a 1966 A&BC card though the bottom edge shows some roughness; the CGC watermark blocks full assessment of the lower-right surface, introducing uncertainty that widens the range downward.

Centering estimate: left border approximately 4mm, right border approximately 6mm giving roughly 60/40 L/R; top border approximately 5mm, bottom border approximately 7mm giving roughly 58/42 T/B — centering is acceptable and not a primary grade driver here. Corners show visible rounding at all four tips, most notably at bottom-left and top-right, suggesting handling wear consistent with VG to VG-EX range. Surface shows some gloss loss across the image area and there is mild toning/aging consistent with a 1966 British issue. No creases are clearly visible from this single front photo, but the seller's title suffix '0r1v' may encode a flaw — without confirmed crease evidence from the image, a crease cannot be confirmed but cannot be ruled out, so the floor is held at 3. Edges appear reasonably intact with no major chips or tears visible. Back cannot be assessed from this photo.

Centering estimate: left border ~10%, right border ~15%, top border ~12%, bottom border ~8% — approximate L/R ratio 60/40, T/B ratio 65/35, centering is somewhat off but not severely so. Corners appear lightly to moderately rounded, particularly visible at bottom-left and top-left, suggesting handling wear consistent with VG-EX to EX range. Surface appears to have moderate gloss loss and shows some toning/aging consistent with a 1966 British issue; a possible light crease or surface wear is suggested near the lower-left area but cannot be confirmed definitively from this single front photo. Edges appear reasonably clean with no major tears or paper loss visible, though the photo resolution limits close corner and edge assessment — range widened accordingly.
