1966 A&BC Batman Black Bat #39

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (approx 55/45 L/R), top border noticeably wider than bottom (approx 60/40 T/B) — centering is passable but not tight. Corners appear to show light rounding on at least the visible lower corners, consistent with EX to VG-EX range; upper corners are harder to assess due to image angle and watermark. Surface shows some print texture typical of A&BC British issues with no obvious creases visible, though the COM watermark obscures the lower-center region where surface flaws could hide. Gloss appears moderate with slight wear; no major staining or tears evident, but the photo resolution and watermark prevent confident assessment of subtle surface issues — range is widened accordingly.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border slightly larger than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — centering is reasonably decent for this issue. Corners: the visible corners show some light rounding, particularly the lower-left and upper-right corners, consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Surface appears to retain reasonable gloss with no obvious creases visible in this image, though the scan angle could hide light surface wear. Edges appear intact without major chipping or fraying, which is typical for A&BC stock. The card sits in what looks like a protective sleeve adding slight framing distortion; back condition and any hidden surface creases cannot be assessed, widening the range accordingly.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (approx 70/30 L/R), top and bottom borders look more balanced at roughly 60/40 T/B — centering is off but not severely miscut. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners visible (upper-left and lower-left appear softened), consistent with a VG-EX range. Surface shows some toning/aging and modest gloss loss typical of A&BC British printings of this era; no obvious hard creases are visible from this photo though the image resolution and watermark obstruct a definitive surface read. Edges appear slightly rough but this is normal for A&BC cuts; the overall presentation suggests a solid VG-EX (4) with a range of 3-5 depending on what the back and corner close-ups reveal.

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably narrower than right (~65/35 left-right favoring right), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 top-bottom) — centering is off but not catastrophically so. All four corners show visible rounding and wear, consistent with heavy handling; no corners appear sharp. The surface shows significant gloss loss across the face with some toning/aging evident, typical of A&BC British issue stock which was softer than Topps. There is no clearly visible crease from this angle but the surface texture and overall wear pattern suggest possible light creasing; without a back scan or corner macro, the range is kept wide. The card presents as a solid VG (3) with possible upside to VG-EX (4) if surface is cleaner than it appears, and downside to GOOD (2) if hidden creasing is present.
