1966 A&BC Batman Black Bat #40

Centering estimate: left border appears notably wider than right (approximately 70/30 left-right), top and bottom borders appear more balanced at roughly 55/45 top-bottom — the left-right imbalance is the primary centering concern. Corners show light-to-moderate rounding on all four, most visible at the bottom-left and top-right, consistent with a grade around EX (5). Surface presents reasonable gloss retention with some toning/yellowing on the cream borders typical of this A&BC printing, and minor print texture is visible but expected for the issue. Edges appear slightly rough but within normal parameters for this British issue; no visible creases or staining are detected, though the back cannot be assessed from this single-sided photo — a back crease or wear could push the grade down toward VG-EX (4).

Centering estimate: left border appears notably wider than right (approximately 70/30 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (roughly 60/40 T/B) — off-center but not miscut. Corners show visible rounding on all four, most pronounced at bottom-left and top-right, consistent with a VG-range card. Surface shows general gloss loss and some toning/soiling across the card face typical of well-handled 1966 A&BC stock. No obvious hard creases are visible from this photo but the card shows general wear and possible light surface crease near the lower center — back not visible so staining or additional creases cannot be ruled out. Overall condition points to a PSA 3 VG with VG-EX (4) being optimistic if surface and back are cleaner than they appear.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (approx 60/40 L/R skew), top border slightly wider than bottom (approx 55/45 T/B) — centering is off but not catastrophically so, likely in the 75/25 range at worst. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners (bottom-left and bottom-right appear softened), consistent with VG-EX to EX range. Surface shows some toning/aging consistent with a 57-year-old British issue and there appears to be minor gloss loss, but no obvious hard creases are visible in the scan. Edges appear reasonably clean with no major nicks visible; the rough-cut texture typical of A&BC issues is present and not penalized. The photo resolution limits confident corner and surface assessment, warranting a widened range.

Centering: left border appears notably wider than right (~65-70% left-weighted), top border slightly wider than bottom, estimating roughly 65/35 L/R and 60/40 T/B — centering is off but not catastrophic. All four corners show visible rounding consistent with a VG card; no corner is sharp. Surface shows general gloss loss across the face with toning/aging typical of A&BC stock, and there appears to be some light soiling or surface wear near the lower left. No obvious hard crease is visible from this angle, but the card shows overall softness and handling wear that places it comfortably in the VG (3) range, with VG-EX (4) possible if corners are slightly better than they appear and no hidden back-side crease exists; GOOD (2) is the floor if the back reveals staining or a crease not visible here.
