1966 OPC Batman Black Bat #46 The Bat-a-Rang — Raw

Centering estimate: left border roughly 6mm, right border roughly 3mm, top border roughly 5mm, bottom border roughly 4mm — yielding approximately 65/35 L/R and 55/45 T/B; the horizontal off-centering is notable but not catastrophic. Corner condition is the primary grade killer here: the upper-left corner shows clear rounding and wear, the lower-left corner appears similarly softened, and the upper-right shows wear consistent with handling — no corner qualifies as sharp. Surface shows visible wear marks and scuffing across the red background, with what appears to be light soiling or toning on the white border areas particularly at bottom. Edges appear reasonably intact for a vintage OPC issue (rough cuts are normal for this printer), but the combination of rounded corners, surface wear, and possible light creasing in the lower-left quadrant (difficult to confirm with certainty from this single photo) places this firmly in the VG to VG-EX range; a PSA 3 is the most likely outcome, with 4 possible if corner rounding is less severe than it appears and no crease is confirmed on the back.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 60/40 L-R favoring right), top border slightly wider than bottom (approximately 55/45 T-B) — centering is acceptable for EX range but not NM territory. Corners show visible rounding on all four, most notably the lower-left and upper-left, consistent with EX to VG-EX wear; no sharp points remain. Surface gloss appears partially intact with moderate loss evident across the image area, suggesting age-appropriate wear without heavy handling. No creases are visible in this image and edges appear reasonably clean with the rough cut typical of OPC stock — back is not visible so hidden flaws (creases, staining, paper loss) cannot be ruled out, warranting the lower end of the range.

Centering: left border appears roughly equal to right (~50/50 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — centering itself is not the primary concern here. The card shows severe overall wear: all four corners are heavily rounded with significant paper loss, the surface exhibits multiple deep creases visible across the entire face, there is substantial soiling and staining throughout, and the cardstock shows heavy wrinkling consistent with moisture exposure at some point. Edge wear is extreme on all four sides. The glossy red surface has largely lost its original sheen. This is a well-used, well-loved survivor that falls squarely in the PSA 1 (Poor/Fair) to PSA 2 (Good) range; the volume and severity of creases combined with corner paper loss pushes the point estimate to a 1.

Centering: left border ~8mm, right ~5mm, top ~5mm, bottom ~6mm — roughly 60/40 L/R and 45/55 T/B, centering alone would not be catastrophic, but it is irrelevant given the severity of other defects. All four corners are heavily rounded and show significant paper wear. Surface is covered in deep creasing/cracking across the entire card face — a network of stress lines and heavy wear consistent with PSA GOOD or below. Significant soiling and toning are visible throughout; gloss is essentially gone. The card appears to be a heavy user/played copy sitting at PSA 1–2 (Poor to Good); the pervasive crease network and corner destruction push the most likely grade to PR-FR (1), with GOOD (2) possible only if back shows no additional major damage.

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably narrower than right (~60% right-heavy), top border slightly narrower than bottom — approximate L/R ~65/35, T/B ~55/45, so centering is strained but not catastrophic. Corners are the primary concern: all four corners show visible rounding and wear, with the upper-left and lower-left appearing most degraded — consistent with a VG to VG-EX range. Surface shows general gloss loss across much of the card face and what appear to be light handling marks or surface scuffs, particularly in the red background area; no single sharp crease is clearly visible but the overall surface fatigue suggests possible soft creasing. Edges appear moderately worn with some roughness consistent with the era's cut quality; the red border shows chipping/wear at multiple points. Overall the card presents solidly in the VG (3) range with some paths to VG-EX (4) if the surface is cleaner than the scan suggests, but condition flaws visible even at this resolution prevent a higher ceiling.

Centering estimate: left border ~8mm, right ~5mm, top ~6mm, bottom ~5mm — roughly 60/40 L/R and 55/45 T/B, so centering itself is not the primary concern. All four corners show visible rounding and wear, with the lower-left and upper-left corners appearing softest; this alone caps the grade. Surface shows moderate handling wear with notable gloss loss across much of the card face, and the orange border displays scuffing/surface abrasion consistent with well-circulated vintage stock. No visible creases from this angle, but the widespread corner and surface wear firmly places this in the VG (3) to VG-EX (4) range; without confirmed absence of creases on closer inspection the floor stays at 2. Back not visible, so a hidden crease or stain could push lower.
