1966 Topps Batman Black Bat #35 Cat Woman Defeated

Centering estimate: left border appears notably narrower than right (roughly 70/30 L-R), top border slightly wider than bottom (approximately 60/40 T-B) — centering is off but not catastrophically miscut. Corners: all four corners show visible rounding and softening, with the lower-left corner appearing the most worn; no sharp corners are evident, consistent with VG-EX to EX territory at best. Surface: the acrylic case introduces glare that obscures assessment of full gloss retention, but toning and print texture consistent with the 1966 Topps run are visible; no obvious creases can be confirmed from this angle though minor surface wear cannot be ruled out. Edges appear reasonably clean with no major nicks visible, and the rough-cut texture normal for this vintage set is present; the case prevents back inspection, and the glare limits confident surface grading — range is widened accordingly.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (approximately 65/35 L-R), top and bottom borders look more balanced at roughly 55/45 T-B — centering is acceptable for EX-MT range but the left-right imbalance is a mild concern. Corners appear reasonably sharp with no obvious rounding visible from this distance, though the lower-left corner behind the bat-logo overlay cannot be fully assessed. Surface gloss appears moderate with no visible creases, staining, or print defects beyond what is typical for 1966 Topps (minor print snow and light toning would be expected and not penalized). Without corner closeups or a back view, the range cannot be tightened further; a confident EX-MT (6) point estimate reflects the visible centering issue suppressing what might otherwise be a 7.

Centering: left border appears roughly equal to right (~55/45 L/R), top border visibly narrower than bottom (~65/35 T/B) – modest but not severe miscentering. The upper-left corner shows noticeable rounding/wear visible even at this scale; upper-right corner also appears softened; lower corners are harder to assess but look similar or slightly better. Surface shows some gloss loss consistent with handling, and there is a visible crease or fold artifact in the lower-left quadrant near the title box area that is concerning – if confirmed as a crease this pushes toward the VG-3 range. White borders show light toning typical of the 1966 issue and should not be over-penalized. Without a corner macro shot the range is necessarily wide; the crease-like mark is the key grade-limiting factor.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (roughly 55/45 L-R), top border slightly larger than bottom (roughly 55/45 T-B) — centering is acceptable, no severe miscut. Corners show light-to-moderate rounding consistent with EX range; no sharp points are visible at any of the four corners, though no dramatic blunting either. Surface gloss appears reasonably intact with no obvious creases detected in this photo, but the seller's disclosed grade of EX/EX+ is plausible and no crease is self-disclosed. Edges look clean with the rough-cut texture normal for this issue. Without a back view or corner macro shots, the range is widened; a hidden crease or heavier corner wear could push this toward VG-EX (4), while clean surface and moderate corner wear support EX (5) as the most likely grade.
