1966 A&BC Batman Black Bat #24 — Raw

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably narrower than right (~60/40 left-right favoring right), top border slightly narrower than bottom (~55/45 top-bottom) — centering is off but not severely so. Corners show visible rounding on at least the visible lower-left and upper-left corners, consistent with VG-EX to EX range. Surface shows some gloss loss and there appears to be light toning/wear across the card face typical of a handled vintage A&BC card. No obvious hard creases are visible from this angle, but the image resolution and slight glare prevent confident assessment of surface scratches or staining. The card appears to have survived reasonably well for its age but corner wear and centering push it into the 3–5 range; absent a crease confirmation the point estimate sits at 4 (VG-EX).

Centering estimate: left border appears notably wider than right (roughly 70/30 L/R), top and bottom borders appear more even at approximately 55/45 T/B — centering is off but not catastrophically miscut. Corners: all four corners show visible rounding, consistent with a VG-range card; no corner is sharp. Surface: the card shows significant toning/age patina across the face with visible soiling or handling marks, and the gloss appears largely lost — consistent with a well-used vintage British card. Edges appear rough but normal for A&BC cuts. No crease is definitively confirmed from this single photo, though the surface texture and toning suggest moderate wear; if a crease is present it would push toward a 2. COMC watermark and sleeve glare obscure fine surface detail, widening the range.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 70/30 left-to-right), top border slightly wider than bottom (approximately 60/40 top-to-bottom) — centering is noticeably off but not catastrophically so. Corners show visible rounding on at least the lower-left and upper-left, consistent with VG-EX to EX range; right-side corners are harder to assess due to image angle and sleeve compression. Surface shows some gloss loss and minor toning typical of A&BC stock; no obvious creases are visible but the photo resolution and sleeve make a definitive crease ruling impossible. Edges appear reasonably clean with no major nicks visible, though A&BC cards routinely show rough cuts which should not be penalized. A back inspection would be essential to confirm the final grade, as hidden creases or staining could push this toward VG (3).
