1966 Topps Batman Bat Laffs #31 Commissioner Gordon and Batman

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly narrower than right (~55/45 L/R), top border noticeably narrower than bottom (~60/40 T/B) — within acceptable range for this set, no miscut. Corners show mild rounding at all four tips, most visible at the top-left and bottom-left, consistent with light handling wear placing this in EX to VG-EX territory. Surface gloss appears moderately intact with no obvious creases visible in this image, though the scan resolution does not allow definitive ruling out of light surface wear or a faint crease. Edges appear reasonably clean with the expected rough-cut texture normal for 1966 Topps Batman; no staining or writing observed.

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably wider than right (roughly 70/30 left-right), top and bottom borders appear more balanced at approximately 55/45 top-to-bottom — centering is off horizontally and would likely grade as OC by PSA standards or cap around EX range. Corners show light-to-moderate rounding visible at the upper-left and lower-left particularly; no razor sharpness anywhere. Surface gloss appears present but with some light wear; no obvious creases are visible in this photo. Edges appear reasonably clean with no major nicks visible, consistent with typical vintage 1966 Topps rough-cut texture. The horizontal miscentering is the primary grade-limiting factor here, likely capping the grade in the EX (5) range, with the possibility of EX-MT (6) if borders measure better under closer inspection.

Centering estimated at approximately 70/30 left-to-right and 60/40 top-to-bottom — borders are uneven but not severely miscut. All four corners show visible rounding and softening; no razor-sharp corners are present, consistent with a VG to EX range. The surface shows noticeable gloss loss and what appears to be light toning or handling wear across the face; the Comc watermark obscures the lower-center, making it impossible to assess any crease in that zone. Edges appear reasonably intact with no obvious tears but do show the expected rough-cut texture normal for this 1966 Topps issue. Without a clean back view and corner close-ups, the range is widened to 3–5, with VG-EX (4) as the most likely grade given the corner rounding and surface wear.

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably narrower than right (roughly 70/30 L-R favoring right), top and bottom borders appear more balanced at approximately 55/45 T-B — centering is off but not catastrophically so. Corners show visible rounding at all four tips, consistent with a VG-EX to EX range; no razor sharpness remains but no severe blunting either. Surface gloss appears partially intact with some dulling visible, and the image photo itself shows typical 1966 Topps print characteristics. No creases are clearly visible in this scan, though the scan compression makes it difficult to rule out light surface creases entirely — the honest range reflects that uncertainty. Overall the card presents as mid-grade raw, likely landing around VG-EX (4), possibly stretching to EX (5) if corners and surface are cleaner than the photo reveals.
