1966 Topps Batman Blue Bat #25B Dragged from Death's Door — TAG (grade unconfirmed)

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably wider than right (roughly 70/30 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (roughly 60/40 T/B) - centering is off but not catastrophically so, likely in the 80/20 or worse range left-to-right which would cap at EX or below. Corners: all four corners show visible rounding under the sleeve; no razor sharpness present - consistent with a VG-EX to EX range. Edges appear slightly rough but that is normal for 1966 Topps Batman vintage cuts. Surface: the sleeve glare prevents confident assessment of creases or gloss loss, though the image texture appears somewhat matte suggesting gloss reduction; no obvious heavy creases visible but a light surface wrinkle cannot be ruled out. Overall the rounding on all four corners, off-centering left-to-right, and likely gloss loss point to a VG-EX (4) as the most probable grade, with EX (5) possible if corners are better than they appear through the sleeve.

Centering: left border appears roughly 10-12% wider than right, top border noticeably thinner than bottom — estimating approximately 60/40 left-right and 70/30 top-bottom, so centering is workable but not tight. The bottom-left corner of the card shows a visible crease or fold line running diagonally, and the lower-left white border area shows wrinkling/stress that strongly suggests a crease — this alone caps the grade in the 2-4 range. All four corners appear rounded or soft with the bottom-left being the worst; upper corners show moderate wear. Surface gloss is partially intact centrally but lost along edges and the creased area; no obvious staining or writing visible. The card is raw and gradable but the apparent bottom-left crease is the dominant defect — a PSA 3 (VG) is the most likely outcome, with a 4 possible only if the crease is shallower than it appears and a 2 if the back reveals additional damage.

Centering estimate: left border ~10%, right border ~12%, top border ~11%, bottom border ~11% — left/right ratio approximately 55/45 to 60/40, top/bottom close to 50/50; centering is quite good and not a grade-limiting factor. Corners: upper-left and upper-right appear reasonably sharp with only minor softening visible; lower corners are partially obscured by toploader glare but show no obvious rounding or fraying. Surface: image area shows strong color saturation and good gloss retention consistent with EX-MT to NM range; no visible creases, staining, or print snow detected in this image. Edges appear clean with no chipping; the rough-cut texture on the left edge is consistent with normal 1966 Topps production and is not penalized. Back not visible and corner sharpness is partially obscured by glare, so the range is widened accordingly — a clean back and sharper corners on inspection could push toward a 7.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) - centering is acceptable for NM-MT range and does not cap the grade. Corners appear reasonably intact with only mild rounding visible on the lower-left and lower-right corners; upper corners look slightly sharper but some softening is present. Surface shows moderate print quality consistent with 1966 Topps vintage stock - some print grain and minor color variation visible but no obvious creases or staining detected. Edges appear slightly rough but this is normal for the 1966 Topps Batman issue; overall gloss appears decent though some loss is visible. Without a back scan and corner macro shots, a range of EX to NM cannot be narrowed further; the seller's 'NM' claim is optimistic but not implausible - landing at EX-MT (6) seems most defensible from this single front image.
