1966 Topps Batman Bat Laffs #39 The Penguin

Centering: left border appears slightly narrower than right (~55/45 L/R), top border noticeably thinner than bottom (~60/40 T/B) – centering is acceptable but not tight. Corners: at this resolution all four corners show slight softening/rounding, consistent with EX to VG-EX range; no sharp razor corners visible. Surface: gloss appears moderate with some light wear; no creases are visible, which is encouraging, though the single-angle seller photo cannot rule out back-side flaws or hidden surface issues. Edges appear reasonably clean with no obvious chipping; vintage rough-cut texture is normal for this issue and not penalized.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (~60/40 left-to-right), top border appears slightly narrower than bottom (~55/45 top-to-bottom) — centering is off but not severely so. Corners show visible rounding at all four tips, most notably the upper-left and lower-right, consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Surface appears to retain moderate gloss with some age toning on the white border areas, which is typical for this set. No obvious creases are visible from this scan, but the image resolution limits a definitive surface call; the seller's 'high grade' claim seems optimistic given the corner wear visible.

Centering estimate: left border appears notably wider than right (roughly 60/40 L-R), top border slightly wider than bottom (roughly 55/45 T-B) — centering is off but not severely so. Corners: all four corners show visible rounding under even this compressed scan, consistent with a VG to VG-EX range; no corner appears sharp. Edges appear reasonably intact without obvious nicks but the rough-cut texture normal for 1966 Topps makes edge assessment difficult. Surface: gloss appears present but reduced; the COMC watermark obscures any surface crease that might be present, and the seller title mentions no crease. The combination of rounded corners and apparent gloss loss points toward a 4 VG-EX as the most likely grade, but a crease hidden beneath the watermark or worse corner rounding on the reverse could drop this to a 3 VG; without a clean unobstructed scan the range cannot be tightened further.

Centering estimate: left border appears notably wider than right (~65/35 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B), so horizontal centering is the primary concern but not catastrophic. Corners show visible rounding on all four corners, most pronounced at the lower-left and upper-right, consistent with a VG range card. Surface shows moderate gloss loss with what appears to be a diagonal crease or stress line running across the lower-center of the card face, which if confirmed would be a grade-limiting defect pushing toward the low end of this range. Edges appear reasonably intact with typical vintage rough-cut texture for this set; no writing or tape damage visible, but the surface wear and corner rounding combined with the possible crease make a PSA 3 the most likely outcome, with VG-EX (4) possible only if the surface line is a scan artifact rather than a true crease.
