1966 A&BC Batman Black Bat #22

Centering estimate: left border approximately 3-4mm, right border approximately 5-6mm, top border approximately 3mm, bottom border approximately 4-5mm — roughly 60/40 L/R and 55/45 T/B, which is acceptable, but border irregularity is consistent with A&BC rough cutting norms. All four corners show visible rounding and wear — upper-left appears most degraded with what looks like a crease or fold stress near the top-left corner, upper-right also shows softening. Surface shows general toning and gloss loss consistent with age; there appear to be light creases or handling marks across the face, most notably in the upper-left quadrant. Edges are rough but within expected A&BC cut norms. The combination of rounded corners, apparent crease(s), and gloss loss points to a VG (3) grade, with VG-EX (4) possible if the surface crease impression is lighter than it appears in this photo.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly narrower than right (~55/45 L/R), top border slightly narrower than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — reasonably well centered, no OC concern. Corners appear to have light wear with very slight rounding visible on the visible corners, consistent with EX-MT to NM range. Surface shows good color saturation and gloss retention with no obvious creases or staining visible. The card appears to be in a slab which limits full assessment of edges and back; the slab framing also slightly obscures edge condition, so the range is widened accordingly — raw condition could vary slightly from what is visible.

Centering estimate: left border is notably thinner than right (~70/30 left-right), top and bottom appear roughly 55/45 — the horizontal off-centering is the primary structural concern. Corners: the visible corners (particularly upper-left and lower-left) show light-to-moderate rounding consistent with a VG-EX to EX range; no sharp points are discernible at this resolution. Surface: there is visible toning and general gloss loss across the card face, typical of the A&BC stock, but no obvious hard creases are visible in this image — cannot fully rule out light surface creases given photo quality. Edges appear reasonably clean with no major chips; the card holder/sleeve boundary obscures precise edge assessment on all four sides, adding uncertainty to the range.

Centering: left border appears notably narrower than right (~70/30 left-to-right), top border slightly tighter than bottom (~55/45 top-to-bottom), so horizontal centering is a meaningful concern. Corners: all four corners show visible rounding and wear consistent with a VG range card; no corner appears sharp. Edges: rough cut typical for A&BC British issue, not penalized heavily, but edges show general wear. Surface: there is apparent gloss loss and possible light toning/soiling visible through the sleeve glare; no obvious hard crease is confirmed from this image though the surface texture suggests handling wear consistent with a 3, with the range extending to 4 if surface is cleaner than the photo suggests or down to 2 if a crease is present on the back or hidden by glare.
