1966 A&BC Batman Red Bat #9A — Raw

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably wider than right (roughly 70/30 L-R), top and bottom borders appear more balanced at approximately 55/45 T-B — centering is off but not miscut territory. Corners show visible rounding and wear on at least two corners (lower-left and upper-right appear most affected), consistent with a VG-EX to EX range. Surface shows general toning and gloss loss consistent with age, with some light soiling or handling marks visible across the face — no obvious hard crease is detectable from this photo though one cannot be ruled out. Edges appear intact with no major tears or paper loss; the rough-cut appearance on the edges is normal for A&BC printings and is not penalized. Overall assessment places this card in the VG-EX (4) range with EX (5) possible if no hidden creases exist on the back.

Centering estimate: left border appears notably wider than right (~65-70% left bias), top border slightly wider than bottom, approximately 70/30 L/R and 60/40 T/B - centering is poor but not severely miscut. Corners show visible rounding on all four corners, most pronounced at upper-left and lower-right, consistent with a VG card. Surface shows a significant diagonal crease running across the upper-center portion of the card (clearly visible from upper-left toward center), plus additional light surface creasing/wrinkles across the mid-card area - this is the dominant grade-killer. Gloss loss is evident across the surface; the card has a worn, handled appearance typical of well-circulated 1966 A&BC material. No writing or tears are visible, but the crease severity combined with corner rounding and gloss loss firmly places this in the VG (3) range, with VG-EX (4) as an optimistic ceiling if the crease is shallower than it appears in photo.
