1966 A&BC Batman Black Bat #28

Centering estimate: left border appears notably wider than right (~65-70% left bias), top border slightly wider than bottom, approx 65/35 L/R and 60/40 T/B — centering is off but not catastrophically so. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners (lower-left and upper-right are the most legible), consistent with a VG-range card. Edges appear somewhat rough/worn with minor nicking visible particularly along the top edge, though rough cuts are normal for A&BC issues so not heavily penalized. Surface shows moderate gloss loss and some toning/wear consistent with a well-handled vintage card from this era; no obvious hard creases are visible in this scan but the image resolution is insufficient to rule them out definitively. A grade of 3 (VG) seems most likely given the corner rounding and surface wear, with range extended to 4 if corners are better than they appear and down to 2 if a crease is present on the reverse or the surface wear is more significant than this photo reveals.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (approximately 70/30 left-right), top border slightly wider than bottom (approximately 60/40 top-bottom) — centering is noticeably off horizontally, consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Corners show light to moderate rounding, particularly visible on the lower-left corner; no corners appear sharp enough for NM territory. Surface shows some loss of original gloss with light toning consistent with a 55+ year old British issue; no obvious creases are visible from this photo though the image resolution limits definitive crease detection. Edges appear reasonably clean with no severe chipping; the rough-cut texture typical of A&BC issues is present and not penalized per vintage standards. The soft holder/sleeve limits a definitive corner and surface assessment, widening the range to 4–6.

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably wider than right (roughly 70/30 L-R), top border slightly wider than bottom (approximately 60/40 T-B) — centering is off but not extreme miscut territory. Corners show visible rounding on all four, most pronounced at bottom-left and bottom-right, consistent with a VG-EX to EX range. Surface shows some gloss loss and light toning/aging typical of A&BC British issues; no obvious hard creases are visible in this scan but the image resolution limits crease detection with certainty. Edges appear reasonably clean with normal rough-cut texture expected for this British issue; overall the card presents as a solid VG-EX (4) with EX (5) possible if corners are slightly better than they appear and no hidden creases exist on reverse.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly narrower than right (approx 60/40 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (approx 55/45 T/B) — centering is acceptable but not tight. Corners show light-to-moderate rounding on at least two visible corners (lower-left and upper-right appear softest), consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Edges appear reasonably clean with no obvious chips or tears, though the A&BC cut quality is characteristically rough and not penalized here. Surface gloss appears partially intact with some wear/gloss loss visible, no obvious creases detected from this photo, but the sleeve glare limits certainty on surface defects. The card presents cleanly overall; back condition unknown and could adjust grade significantly.
