1966 A&BC Batman Black Bat #20 — Raw

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (approximately 70/30 L/R), top border slightly narrower than bottom (approximately 60/40 T/B) - centering is noticeably off horizontally which is a meaningful deduction. Corners: the visible upper-right and lower-right corners show light rounding consistent with EX-range wear; upper-left is partially obscured but appears similar. Surface: gloss appears reasonably intact with no obvious creases visible from this angle, print quality looks clean for an A&BC issue. Edges appear intact without major fraying. The sleeve limits a definitive corner and edge read; the horizontal miscentering is the primary grade driver, pushing this toward EX (5) range rather than EX-MT (6), with VG-EX (4) as the floor if corner wear is worse than it appears.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55L/45R), top border appears slightly wider than bottom (~55T/45T) - centering looks acceptable, roughly 60/40 or better on both axes. Corners: the visible corners show some rounding, particularly the lower-left and upper-right which appear softened rather than sharp, suggesting light-to-moderate wear consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Surface: image appears reasonably clean with some gloss retention visible; no obvious creases detected from this single frontal photo though the image resolution and sleeve glare limit confidence. Edges: appear fairly clean with no dramatic fraying visible, consistent with A&BC rough-cut norms for the era. The sleeve glare obscures upper-right detail and no corner macro shots are available, so the range is widened accordingly - a crease on the reverse or more significant corner damage could push this toward a 3-4.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 60/40 L/R favoring right), top border slightly wider than bottom (approx 55/45 T/B) - centering is off but not severely so, likely within EX-VG-EX range on that metric alone. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners (lower-left and upper-left appear softened from this angle), consistent with a VG-EX to EX grade. Surface shows some general wear and toning consistent with age on this British issue; gloss appears partially intact but reduced. No obvious creases are visible in this photo, though the image resolution prevents certainty - the card has the honest wear of a well-handled vintage piece, and the back cannot be assessed. Range reflects uncertainty about hidden crease presence and true corner condition.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 60/40 L-to-R skew favoring right), top border appears slightly narrower than bottom (roughly 55/45 T-to-B), so centering is off but not severely so - no miscut evident. Corners: at this resolution the corners appear to show some rounding, particularly visible on the lower-left and upper-left, suggesting at minimum VG-EX territory; no razor-sharp corners are apparent. Surface: some gloss loss is possible but hard to confirm through the sleeve glare; no obvious creases visible but the image resolution is insufficient to rule out light surface creases. This is a British A&BC printing which tends to have softer stock than Topps US issues, making corner wear more common; the range is widened due to sleeve obscuring fine detail and the absence of corner macro shots.
