1966 A&BC Batman Black Bat #32

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — centering is acceptable and not a major deduction. Corners: all four corners show visible rounding, most notably the lower-left and upper-right, consistent with honest handling wear placing this firmly in the VG-EX to EX range. Edges appear reasonably clean with no severe chipping or tears visible, though the cut shows the slightly rough texture typical of A&BC issues and should not be over-penalized. Surface shows moderate gloss loss and some light toning/aging consistent with a 55+ year old British card, but no creases are clearly visible in this image — if the back or a closer inspection reveals a crease (not disclosed in the title), the grade would drop to 3; absent that, VG-EX (4) is the most likely grade. The watermark overlay obscures a portion of the lower surface, introducing uncertainty about any hidden print defect or surface crease in that area.

Centering estimate: left border appears notably thinner than right (approximately 80/20 L-R), top border slightly thinner than bottom (roughly 65/35 T-B), so horizontal centering is significantly off but not catastrophic. Corners: all four corners show visible rounding consistent with handling wear — no sharp points remain, placing this squarely in the VG to VG-EX range at best. Surface: there is evident creasing visible running diagonally across the lower-left quadrant of the card, and additional stress lines are visible near the centre — these are grade-limiting defects that push the card toward VG (3) or lower. Edges appear rough but this is normal for A&BC cuts of this era and is not penalised heavily; gloss appears largely lost across the image area. The combination of rounded corners, at least one visible crease, and poor centering makes a grade above 4 very unlikely; the crease severity visible here is consistent with a PSA 2-3 outcome.
