1966 Topps Batman Bat Laffs #43 The Joker — Raw

Centering estimate: left border appears notably wider than right (roughly 65-70% left / 30-35% right), and top border appears slightly wider than bottom (approximately 55/45 top-to-bottom) — left/right centering is a concern and likely the grade-limiting factor. Corners appear to show some rounding or softening, particularly visible on the lower corners, suggesting wear consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Surface gloss appears present but the photo angle and resolution make it difficult to assess print defects, scratches, or creases with confidence — no obvious creases detected, consistent with seller's claim. Edges appear reasonably clean for a 1966 Topps issue where rough cuts are normal, but the left/right centering tilt and corner wear make a PSA 5 EX the most likely outcome, with a realistic range of 4–6 pending back inspection and better corner closeups.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly narrower than right (~55/45 L/R), top border appears noticeably narrower than bottom (~60/40 T/B) — centering is off but not severely so, consistent with EX-MT to NM range. Corners appear reasonably sharp with only minor rounding visible at the upper corners; lower corners are harder to assess from this angle. Surface gloss appears intact with good color saturation and no obvious creases visible. Edges appear clean with normal vintage roughness for this set. The primary uncertainty is corner and back condition which cannot be evaluated from this single front photo; the card presents well for its age and the seller's 'high grade' claim is not contradicted by what is visible, though 'high grade' on raw vintage is always subject to in-hand verification.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (approximately 55/45 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (approximately 55/45 T/B) — centering is decent but not tight. Corners show some rounding/wear visible at least on the lower-left and upper-right corners, consistent with an EX range card; corners are not sharp but not severely rounded. Surface appears to retain reasonable gloss with no obvious creases visible in this photo, though fine surface wear or scuffing cannot be ruled out at this resolution. The seller's EX+ claim is plausible; the card looks to fall in the EX (PSA 5) to EX-MT (PSA 6) range, but corner wear and the inability to inspect the back or edges closely under magnification keeps the floor at VG-EX (PSA 4).
