1966 Topps Batman Bat Laffs #17 Batman and Robin — Raw

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 70/30 L/R), top border is very narrow with tape residue adhered directly to the card surface — this is a significant surface defect. Corners appear rounded and show wear consistent with a VG or lower grade. The tape on the top border is the most damaging visible flaw; if it has caused tearing or paper loss upon removal it could drop to a PR-FR (1), but as shown it suggests a GOOD (2) range. Gloss appears partially intact in the image center but overall surface wear and the tape damage are grade-limiting. Back cannot be assessed; additional creases or staining may be present.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (approx 55/45 L/R), top border slightly narrower than bottom (approx 55/45 T/B) — centering is reasonable and not a major grade detractor. Corners appear to show light rounding, particularly visible on the lower-left and upper-right, consistent with EX to VG-EX range; no sharp points are evident but no severe blunting either. Surface gloss appears intact with no obvious creases visible in this photo, consistent with the seller's 'Exmnt' self-assessment, though the back is not visible and could reveal hidden flaws. Edges look clean with no major chips or tears noted; the white border shows minor toning consistent with a 55+ year old card. Overall the card photographs as a solid EX (5), with a range of 4–6 accounting for uncertainty about the back and corner condition under close inspection.

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably wider than right (roughly 70/30 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (approximately 60/40 T/B) — centering is off but not catastrophic. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners (lower left and lower right are most visible), consistent with VG-EX to EX range. Surface gloss appears partially intact but with some dulling evident, and the card shows light overall wear consistent with age. No creases are clearly visible from this photo, though the image resolution limits close corner and edge inspection — range is widened accordingly to account for hidden surface issues or corner condition that could push this lower.

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably wider than right (~65-70% left), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55% top) - left/right ratio roughly 65/35 to 70/30, top/bottom approximately 55/45; centering is off but not catastrophic. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners (upper left and lower right appear softest), consistent with VG-EX to EX range. Surface gloss appears somewhat muted with light wear, no obvious creases visible in this scan but the image resolution limits crease detection with confidence. Edges appear reasonably intact for a vintage 1966 Topps card where rough cuts are expected; overall condition suggests a VG-EX (4) most likely, with EX (5) possible if corners are better than they appear and no hidden reverse defects exist.

Seller explicitly notes 'creases' in the listing title/note, which is a self-disclosed flaw taken seriously per grading protocol; creases are visible in the scan consistent with the disclosure. Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border appears noticeably wider than bottom (~65/35 T/B), so centering is workable but not tight. Corners appear rounded with visible wear, consistent with a VG (3) card, and the surface shows some gloss loss. The watermark obscures part of the face making it impossible to fully assess surface creasing extent, which widens the range; if creases are light/singular the card could reach VG-EX (4), but if multiple or deep it could fall to GOOD (2).

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (approx 70/30 L/R), top and bottom borders look relatively even at roughly 55/45 T/B — centering is off but not catastrophically so. The most significant issues visible are multiple surface scratches/scuffs running diagonally across the front of the card, consistent with storage wear or handling damage; these are clearly visible even at scan resolution and will heavily impact grade. Corners appear rounded on at least two visible corners (lower-left notably so), suggesting VG-range corner wear. Gloss appears significantly diminished. The combination of surface scratches, rounded corners, and gloss loss points to a PSA 2-3 range, with the surface abrasions being the primary grade killer; back cannot be assessed from this image so a hidden crease could push toward the lower bound.
