1966 A&BC Batman Black Bat #49 — Raw

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably wider than right (~65/35 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B), so left-right centering is a concern but not catastrophic. Corners show visible rounding on at least the bottom-left and top-right corners visible in this view, consistent with VG-EX to EX range. Edges appear reasonably clean with no obvious nicks visible at this resolution. Surface shows some gloss loss and the image coloration suggests light overall wear consistent with the age of a 1966 A&BC issue; no creases are clearly discernible from this photo but cannot be ruled out on the back or in areas obscured by the angle. The COMC watermark and slight card tilt limit corner and edge assessment confidence, warranting a widened range.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly narrower than right (~55-60% right-heavy), top border appears marginally wider than bottom, roughly 60/40 L/R and 55/45 T/B - acceptable but not tight. Corners show some rounding, particularly visible at lower-left and upper-left, suggesting moderate wear consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Surface appears relatively clean with decent residual gloss; no obvious creases are visible from this photo, though the Comc watermark obscures the center surface. Edges appear reasonably clean with no major notching visible; rough cut texture is normal for A&BC issues and not penalized. The Comc watermark prevents full surface and center assessment, widening the range - a clean crease-free example in hand could push toward 6, while hidden wear or a subtle crease could drop it to 4.

Centering estimate: left border ~8mm, right border ~5mm, top border ~6mm, bottom border ~5mm — approximate L/R ratio 62/38 and T/B ratio 55/45, which falls in the EX-MT to EX range with modest left-heavy bias. Corners: upper-left and lower-left corners show visible rounding/softening visible even at this resolution; upper-right and lower-right appear slightly sharper but not crisp — consistent with a 4-5 grade. Surface and gloss: artwork area appears reasonably clean with decent remaining gloss, no obvious creases detected in the image, though the plastic sleeve limits full surface inspection. Edges appear slightly rough but this is normal for A&BC cuts and should not be over-penalized; without a back scan and corner macro shots, the range is widened slightly to account for hidden wear.
