1966 Topps Batman Blue Bat #22B Routing the Riddler

Centering estimate: left border ~4mm, right border ~7mm, top border ~5mm, bottom border ~6mm — approximate L/R ratio 65/35 and T/B ratio 55/45, so left-to-right centering is noticeably off but not extreme. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners (lower-left and lower-right appear most worn), consistent with VG to VG-EX range. Surface shows significant gloss loss across the face with what appears to be light scuffing or handling wear; there is also apparent soiling or toning particularly in the upper-left quadrant of the image area. No creases are definitively visible from this photo angle, but the degree of surface wear and corner rounding is consistent with a PSA 3 (VG), and the possibility of a light crease hidden in the image cannot be ruled out without a back inspection, keeping the floor at 2. The card does not rise above PSA 4 given the evident corner and surface wear.

Centering estimate: left border appears roughly 10-12% wider than right, top border slightly wider than bottom — approximately 60/40 L/R and 55/45 T/B, acceptable for the grade range. Corners show visible rounding on all four, most pronounced at the lower-left and lower-right, consistent with a VG-EX to EX card; no corner is sharp. Surface shows general gloss loss and what appears to be light handling wear across the face; no obvious hard crease is visible in this shot but the card stock looks soft and lightly toned on the white borders. Edges are rough-cut in the normal fashion for this issue and are not penalized. Back is unseen, so any hidden creases, stains, or writing could pull the grade down; the visible condition points to a PSA 4 (VG-EX) as the most likely outcome, with EX (5) possible if the back is clean and corners are slightly better than they read here.

Centering estimate: left border roughly 8%, right border roughly 12%, top border roughly 8%, bottom border roughly 10% — centering is off but not catastrophically so, perhaps 65/35 L/R. The dominant grade-killer is the heavy diagonal crease running from upper-left corner area down through the card face, clearly visible across the surface; this alone prevents anything above a PSA 3. Corners show rounding and wear consistent with heavy handling. Surface gloss appears largely lost, and there is noticeable soiling or wear across the front. The seller's self-description of 'low grade' is accurate — this card is a PSA 2 GOOD candidate with the crease severity, though a lenient eye might allow PSA 3 VG if the crease is shallower than it photographs; the point estimate leans to 2.

Centering: left border appears narrower than right (estimated ~60/40 L/R favoring right), top border slightly narrower than bottom (~55/45 T/B) - centering is acceptable but not tight. Corners: all four corners show visible rounding/softening, particularly the lower-left and upper-right, consistent with VG-EX to EX range wear. Surface: some gloss loss is apparent across the card face, and there is noticeable toning/aging to the white border areas typical of this set; no obvious creases are visible in this image though the photo may not reveal light surface creases. Edges appear reasonably clean with no major nicks visible, and the rough-cut texture on at least the right edge is within normal parameters for this 1966 Topps issue. Range widened slightly due to inability to confirm back condition or rule out hidden light creasing.
