1966 Topps Batman Black Bat #36 The Riddler

Centering estimate: left/right borders appear approximately 65/35 favoring left, top/bottom approximately 60/40 favoring top — acceptable for EX-MT range but not NM territory. Surface shows good gloss retention with no visible creases from this angle. Corners appear lightly worn — top-right corner shows the most wear with slight rounding visible, consistent with EX to EX-MT grade; the remaining three corners look reasonably sharp but cannot be confirmed at high resolution. Edges appear clean with no significant chips or tears, normal for the vintage rough-cut style of this set. The seller's EX-MT+ claim is plausible but optimistic; without corner closeups and a back scan, a range of 5–7 is appropriate, with 6 (EX-MT) as the most likely PSA grade.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border appears moderately wider than bottom (~60/40 T/B) — centering is acceptable for a PSA 6-7 range. Corners: at this resolution the corners appear to have light wear with minor rounding visible, consistent with EX-MT to NM range; no sharp razor corners evident but no severe blunting either. Surface: gloss appears mostly intact with no obvious creases, scratches, or major print defects visible; some minor toning typical of 1966 Topps stock may be present on borders. Edges appear reasonably clean with the rough-cut texture normal for this issue; back cannot be assessed from this photo, and corner close-ups are unavailable, so the range is widened accordingly.

Centering: left border appears slightly wider than right (approx 55/45 L/R), top border slightly larger than bottom (approx 55/45 T/B) — centering is competitive and does not cap the grade. Corners: all four corners appear reasonably sharp from this distance; no obvious rounding or blunting visible, though fine corner tips cannot be fully assessed without a macro shot. Surface: gloss appears present and mostly intact; no obvious creases are visible, and the card stock looks relatively clean with normal aging for a 57-year-old card. Edges appear intact with no major chipping; the rough-cut texture typical of this 1966 Topps issue is noted and not penalized. Back is not visible, limiting confidence — a hidden crease or stain could pull the grade down.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border noticeably wider than bottom (~60/40 T/B) — acceptable for the grade range but not tight enough for NM-MT+. Corners: upper-left and upper-right appear reasonably sharp with only very light wear; lower corners are harder to assess due to the bat-logo graphic overlapping the bottom edge, but show no obvious rounding from what is visible. Surface gloss appears present and relatively intact with no obvious creases or staining visible; the cream border shows typical age toning consistent with a 55+ year old card but no alarming defects. Edges appear clean without significant fraying; rough-cut texture on the right edge is within normal vintage tolerance for this issue. Back is not visible so paper quality, print defects, and any hidden creases cannot be confirmed — range widened accordingly.
