1966 Topps Batman Bat Laffs #33 Batman — Raw

Centering estimate: left border appears notably wider than right (~60/40 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — centering is passable but off. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners (upper-left and lower-left discernible), consistent with a VG grade; no corner is sharp. Surface shows what appears to be a diagonal crease or heavy scratch running across the upper-left quadrant of the image area, consistent with the seller's 'VG' disclosure and consistent with a PSA 3 grade. Gloss appears partially present but reduced. The card back is not visible, and the angle limits a precise corner assessment, so a VG-EX (4) remains possible if the crease is shallower than it appears, but the visible surface disturbance and rounded corners most strongly suggest PSA 3 VG.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 60/40 L-R favoring right), top border slightly wider than bottom (roughly 55/45 T-B) — centering is off but not severely so, consistent with EX to EX-MT range. Corners show slight rounding visible at upper-left and lower-left, suggesting wear in the EX to VG-EX range; right-side corners are harder to assess at this resolution. Surface gloss appears moderately intact with no obvious creases visible, though the image resolution limits confident assessment of subtle surface wear or print snow. Edges appear reasonably clean with typical rough cut for this vintage issue; no miscut detected. Range widened slightly due to soft focus preventing definitive corner and surface evaluation.

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably narrower than right (~65-70% right-heavy), top and bottom borders look relatively even (~55/45 top-heavy); left-right centering is the primary concern and could approach 70/30 or worse. Corners appear to have light-to-moderate rounding visible on at least two corners (lower left and upper left), consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Surface gloss appears partially intact with some dulling, no obvious creases visible from this photo though the image resolution limits crease detection. Edges look intact with no major chips or tears; vintage rough-cut texture is normal for this set and not penalized. The photo angle and soft focus prevent confident corner and surface assessment — range is intentionally wide to account for unseen back condition and potential hidden creases.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 60/40 L-R favoring right), top and bottom borders appear closer to 55/45 — not severely off-center but noticeably shifted. The white borders show visible toning/yellowing consistent with age. Corner detail is obscured by the angle and image resolution, but at least two corners (lower-left, upper-left) appear to show some rounding rather than sharp points, suggesting wear consistent with VG-EX to EX range. Surface appears to have modest gloss remaining with no obvious creases visible from this view, though the scan resolution and angle prevent confident assessment of subtle surface wear or print defects. The back condition and true corner sharpness cannot be confirmed from this single front photo, warranting a wide range.

Centering estimate: left border appears notably thinner than right (~70/30 L/R), top border slightly thinner than bottom (~55/45 T/B), so left-right centering is a concern but not miscut territory. Corners show visible rounding on at least the lower-left and upper-left corners as seen from this angle, consistent with VG-EX to EX range. Surface shows some cloudiness/gloss loss and possible light wear marks or scuffs visible in the image area; the cream/toned border is typical for this 57-year-old issue and not penalized heavily. The easel angle and single-photo view obscure corner detail on the right side and the back entirely — the range is widened accordingly. No obvious creases are visible, but cannot rule out light surface creases given gloss loss; a crease would drop this toward VG (3).

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border noticeably narrower than bottom (~60/40 T/B), so centering is acceptable but not tight. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners (upper left and lower left appear most worn), consistent with VG-EX to EX range. Surface shows some gloss loss and the image quality makes it difficult to rule out a light surface crease or scratch; no heavy creases are obvious. The seller's 'VGEX' self-disclosure aligns with the visual evidence of corner wear and mild surface wear, suggesting a PSA 4 (VG-EX) is the most likely outcome, with EX (5) possible if corners are better than they appear and no hidden back issues exist.

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably narrower than right (roughly 70/30 L-R), top border appears slightly narrower than bottom (roughly 60/40 T-B), suggesting moderate horizontal miscentering that could push toward OC territory but does not appear miscut. Corners: the visible corners show some rounding, particularly the upper-left, consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Surface: gloss appears intact with no obvious creases visible in this scan, though the CoMC watermark obscures a portion of the card face making crease detection unreliable. Edges appear reasonably clean for a 1966 Topps issue where rough cuts are expected; overall the card presents as a mid-grade example but the scan quality and watermark obstruction force a wide range — a higher-resolution corner closeup would be needed to confirm grade.

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably wider than right border (~70/30 left-to-right), top and bottom borders look roughly even (~55/45 top/bottom) — the left-right misalignment is the primary centering concern, pushing toward VG-EX or below. Corners: all four corners show visible rounding/softening, consistent with a VG to VG-EX card; no sharp corners evident even accounting for photo compression. Surface: the COMC watermark partially obscures the image but the underlying photo appears to show moderate gloss loss with possible light surface wear; no obvious creases are visible in this scan but the image quality is insufficient to rule out subtle ones. Edges appear intact without major chipping or tears; this is a typical mid-grade raw example of this set — back condition and closer corner inspection are unknown and could shift the grade in either direction.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (approximately 55/45 L/R), top border appears noticeably wider than bottom (approximately 65/35 T/B) — centering is off but not severely so, consistent with EX-MT range. Corners appear to show light wear with minor blunting visible on at least two corners, no sharp razor points evident but no significant rounding either, consistent with EX to EX-MT. Surface gloss appears moderate with no obvious creases visible from this photo. Edges appear reasonably clean with no egregious chipping; rough cut texture is normal for this set and not penalized. The seller's 'EXMT+' self-assessment aligns plausibly with the photo evidence, though corner and edge detail is obscured by image resolution, warranting a widened range of 5-7 with 6 as the most likely grade.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (~60-65% right-heavy), top border slightly narrower than bottom — approximate L/R ratio ~65/35, T/B ~55/45, centering penalty of roughly one grade. No miscut visible. Corners show visible rounding under inspection, particularly the upper-left and lower-left, consistent with VG-EX to EX range. Surface gloss appears present but the COMC watermark and image resolution make it difficult to assess print defects, staining, or creases definitively. No obvious creases are visible but the image compression and watermark obscure fine surface detail; range is widened accordingly to account for hidden back condition and inability to confirm surface integrity.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 60/40 L/R favoring right), top border slightly narrower than bottom (approximately 55/45 T/B) — centering is off but not severely so, consistent with EX to EX-MT range. Corners appear to have some rounding visible at the upper-left and lower-left, suggesting moderate wear consistent with EX (5) or VG-EX (4); no razor sharpness is evident. Surface gloss appears partially intact with some dulling visible, and the photo image itself looks slightly soft/faded as is typical for this set's print stock. The COMC watermark obscures the center of the card, making surface crease detection difficult; back is unavailable, and corner detail is limited at this resolution — range is widened accordingly.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 70/30 L/R), top border slightly narrower than bottom (approximately 65/35 T/B) — centering alone would not be catastrophic but is off. More critically, the surface shows multiple visible creases running diagonally across the card face — at least two prominent crease lines are clearly visible through the toploader, which is the dominant grade-limiting factor here. Corners appear rounded with wear consistent with a VG card. Gloss appears largely lost with surface wear evident throughout. The card is well-worn consistent with a raw vintage 1966 Topps card that has seen significant handling; the creases push this squarely into the VG (3) to GOOD (2) range, with VG-EX (4) as an optimistic ceiling only if the creases are shallower than they appear through the plastic.
