1966 Topps Batman Black Bat #52 Winged Giant — Raw

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (~55% right-heavy), top border appears slightly wider than bottom — approximate L/R ratio 60/40, T/B ratio 55/45; centering is moderately off but not severely so. Corners: all four corners show visible rounding/wear — no sharp points remain, consistent with a VG-EX to EX range; no corner is catastrophically blunted. Edges: appear reasonably clean with typical rough-cut texture normal for the 1966 Topps Batman issue; no chipping or major nicks apparent. Surface: gloss appears present but somewhat diminished, some light toning visible on the white border particularly top-left; no creases are visible in this image though the photo angle could conceal light surface creases on the reverse or in areas not well-lit. The card presents solidly in the EX (5) range with corners preventing a higher grade; a hidden crease or worse reverse could push it to VG-EX (4).

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably wider than right (~65/35 L/R), top and bottom borders look relatively balanced (~55/45 T/B), placing this in EX-MT or below territory on centering alone. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners visible from this angle — lower left and upper left appear softened, consistent with a VG-EX to EX card. Surface shows some light wear and possible minor scuffing or print wear; gloss appears partially diminished but not heavily lost. No creases are clearly visible from this photo, but the back cannot be assessed, and a hidden crease would pull the grade toward VG (3). The card is showing honest vintage wear typical of a played 1966 Topps Batman: rough cut edges are normal for this issue and not penalized. Range set at 3–5 reflecting corner wear and centering, with 4 (VG-EX) as the most likely single grade pending back inspection.

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably wider than right (~65/35 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — horizontal centering is the more significant issue. Most critically, there is a visible diagonal crease running from the upper-center area down through the card surface, consistent with a fold crease, which alone caps the grade at VG (3) or below. All four corners show moderate-to-heavy rounding — no sharp points survive — consistent with a VG or lower grade. Surface gloss appears largely lost with some scuffing visible, and the top edge shows wear/fraying. The crease is the dominant defect; combined with rounded corners and gloss loss this card grades solidly in the VG (3) range, with VG-EX (4) possible only if the crease is shallower than it appears and GD (2) possible if the crease has a hard fold line not fully visible in this light.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (~60/40 L/R), top border slightly narrower than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — centering is passable for a PSA 5-6 but not ideal. The seller notes edge wear and corner wear, which is consistent with what the photo suggests: corners appear to have light-to-moderate rounding rather than sharp points, consistent with a VG-EX (4) to EX (5) range. Surface gloss appears partially present but reduced, with no creases visible in this image though the COMC watermark obscures the center. Edges show the rough-cut texture normal for this 1966 Topps issue and should not be over-penalized, but the disclosed corner wear pulls the ceiling down from EX (5). Without a clean back view and corner close-ups, a range of 3–5 is appropriate, with 4 (VG-EX) as the most likely grade given the disclosed condition and visible wear.

Centering: left border appears roughly 10-12% wider than right, top border slightly narrower than bottom — estimating approximately 60/40 left-right and 55/45 top-bottom, acceptable for the grade range. Corners appear reasonably crisp from this distance with no obvious rounding visible at the four points, though the photo does not offer tight corner closeups, introducing uncertainty. Surface gloss appears intact with good color saturation and no visible creases or staining; the teal background shows clean printing with only minor print texture typical of the issue. Edges look reasonably clean with the slightly rough cut normal for 1966 Topps production; a back-of-card assessment and closer corner inspection would be needed to distinguish EX-MT (6) from NM (7) with confidence.

Centering estimate: left border appears approximately 10-12% wider than right border, top border slightly wider than bottom — rough left/right ~55/45 and top/bottom ~55/45, acceptable for an EX-MT to NM range. Corners: upper-left and upper-right corners show slight softening visible at this resolution; lower corners are harder to assess precisely but appear comparable — no sharp blunting or rounding consistent with heavy use, suggesting EX to EX-MT range. Surface: gloss appears reasonably intact with no obvious creases, scratches, or print defects noted; some minor print snow typical of the 1966 Topps Batman issue is possible but not clearly visible. Edges: cut appears clean without miscut issues; rough edge texture is normal for this vintage issue and not penalized. The sleeve/holder prevents a definitive corner assessment, and the back is unseen, so the range is widened accordingly — a strong EX-MT (6) is the most likely grade, with NM (7) possible if corners prove sharper on physical inspection.

Centering estimate: left border ~10%, right border ~15%, top border ~12%, bottom border ~8% — slightly off left-to-right and top-heavy, roughly 60/40 L/R and 60/40 T/B, borderline but within EX-MT range on its own. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners (lower-left and upper-left appear softened to the eye), suggesting wear consistent with VG-EX to EX territory. Surface shows what appears to be a diagonal crease or stress line running across the upper-center portion of the card (visible near the moon area), which if confirmed as a true crease would push the grade toward VG (3); if it is merely a print artifact or light handling line, EX (5) remains possible. Gloss loss is evident across the surface, edges appear slightly worn but not frayed — overall the card presents as a solid VG-EX (4) with the crease concern being the key uncertainty that widens the range.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border appears slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — centering is acceptable for a PSA 5-6 range. Corners show light rounding on at least two visible corners (lower-left and upper-right appear softened), consistent with EX to VG-EX wear. Surface shows some modest gloss loss and visible print texture typical of the era; no creases are apparent from this angle, though the back is not visible. White borders show mild toning/aging consistent with a 55+ year old card, but no staining or major soiling is evident — back condition, which cannot be assessed here, may shift the grade in either direction.
