1966 A&BC Batman Black Bat #24 — Raw

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 70/30 left-to-right), top and bottom borders appear more balanced at approximately 60/40 — centering is off but not catastrophically so. Corners show light-to-moderate rounding, particularly visible on the upper-left and lower-left corners, consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Surface shows some toning/yellowing on the borders typical of A&BC stock aging, and there is minor overall gloss loss but no obvious creases visible from this angle. Edges appear reasonably clean with no major tears or paper loss; rough cut texture is normal for A&BC production and not penalized. The range is widened slightly because corner detail and any reverse-side issues cannot be confirmed from this single front photo.

Centering estimate: left border appears notably narrower than right (~70/30 left-to-right), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 top-to-bottom), so horizontal centering is a concern but not catastrophic for a vintage A&BC issue. Corners show visible rounding, particularly on the upper-left and lower-left corners visible at this angle, consistent with a VG-EX range card. Surface shows some toning/aging typical of the era on the cream/off-white border areas, and there appears to be mild gloss loss across the face, though the COMC watermark obscures the center surface detail. No obvious creases visible from this photo, but the back is unviewable and the watermark prevents a confident surface call — range is widened accordingly.

Centering estimate: left border appears notably narrower than right (~70/30 left-to-right), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 top-to-bottom), so horizontal off-centering is the primary concern. Corners show visible rounding on at least the lower-left and upper-left, consistent with a VG-EX to EX range. Surface shows some toning/yellowing on the cream borders typical of this British issue, and gloss appears reduced but not absent. No obvious creases are visible in this image, though the photo resolution and watermark obstruction prevent confident assessment of the surface — a hidden crease or stain cannot be ruled out, warranting the lower end of the range.

Centering estimate: left border ~10-12%, right border ~8-10%, top border ~12-14%, bottom border ~8-10% — left/right roughly 55/45 to 60/40, top/bottom roughly 60/40, centering is workable but slightly off; no miscut detected. Corners appear to have mild rounding on at least two visible corners (lower-left most evident), consistent with light handling wear, placing this in the EX to VG-EX range. Surface shows some light toning typical of A&BC stock of this era but no obvious creases are visible from this angle; gloss appears moderately intact with some dulling. The holder glare obscures the left and bottom edges slightly, preventing full corner and edge assessment — range widened accordingly.
