1966 A&BC Batman Black Bat #47

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 primary concern. Corners show visible rounding at all four points, most notably the lower-left and upper-right, consistent with a VG-EX to EX range. Edges appear slightly rough but that is normal for A&BC production of this era and should not be over-penalized. Surface shows some gloss loss and toning consistent with age; there is no crease clearly visible from this angle but the photo perspective obscures a definitive read on surface creases. The card presents as a solid mid-grade vintage example; back condition unknown and could shift the grade downward if creasing or staining is present.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (~60/40 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — off-center but not severely so for this issue. Corners show light-to-moderate rounding, particularly visible on the lower-left and upper-left corners, consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Edges appear reasonably clean with no obvious fraying or chips visible at this resolution. Surface shows some light gloss loss and possible minor print texture/snow typical of A&BC stock, but no visible creases, staining, or writing — surface stress lines cannot be fully ruled out from a single scan. The rough cut edges are normal for A&BC production and are not penalized. Back is not visible so hidden defects (creases, writing) cannot be excluded, warranting a widened range.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right by a moderate margin, approximately 60/40 L/R; top/bottom appears reasonably balanced at roughly 55/45 — centering is acceptable but not tight. Corners show light rounding at the visible corners, particularly bottom-left and top-left, consistent with an EX range card; no sharp razor corners present. Surface shows some light print wear and toning consistent with a 1966 A&BC issue; no creases are clearly visible from this photo, though the sleeve glare slightly obscures the lower-left quadrant. Gloss appears partially retained but dulled, and the card stock shows the typical lighter/rougher A&BC printing quality — these British issues grade slightly differently in texture than Topps equivalents, and the observed wear pattern places this comfortably in the EX (5) range with EX-MT (6) possible if corners are sharper than the photo resolves.

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably wider than right (approximately 70/30 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (approximately 60/40 T/B) — off-center but not severe miscut territory. Corners appear to show moderate rounding on at least two visible corners (lower-left and upper-left), consistent with VG-EX to EX range. Surface shows some toning/age spotting typical of this British issue, and the card stock appears slightly soft. The COMC watermark obscures the lower-center surface preventing full assessment of any creasing or staining in that zone; no obvious heavy creases visible in the exposed areas. Given corner rounding and off-centering, a raw grade of 4 (VG-EX) is most likely, with EX (5) possible if corners are sharper than the photo resolves and VG (3) possible if the hidden lower area carries a crease.
