1966 Topps Batman Blue Bat #34B A Fatal Joust — Raw

Centering estimate: left border appears notably wider than right (roughly 70/30 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (approximately 60/40 T/B) - centering is off but not catastrophically so. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners (lower-left and upper-right are the most legible), consistent with VG-EX to EX range. Surface shows moderate gloss loss and some light toning/aging on the yellow background area, typical for the vintage. Edges appear slightly rough but within normal parameters for 1966 Topps rough-cut stock. No creases are clearly visible from this image, but the watermark overlay and image resolution prevent a definitive surface read - a hidden crease would push this toward a 3.

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably wider than right (~65/35 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B), so horizontal centering is a concern. Corners appear rounded and show wear consistent with a VG or lower grade - at least two corners show visible rounding visible even through the sleeve distortion. The seller self-discloses 'Good' grade which aligns with the visible wear. Surface shows some gloss loss and possible light creasing but the sleeve texture makes it difficult to confirm crease detail definitively. Given rounded corners, centering issues, and seller's own 'Good' disclosure, a PSA 3 VG is the most likely outcome, with a slight chance of 4 VG-EX if corners are better than they appear, or 2 Good if creasing is more significant than the photo reveals.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border noticeably wider than bottom (~60/40 T/B) - centering is workable but not tight. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners (lower-left and upper-right appear softer), consistent with VG-EX to EX range. Edges appear reasonably clean with no obvious tears or major nicks visible, consistent with the 1966 Topps rough-cut norm. Surface shows some gloss loss and light wear; the watermark overlay obscures potential creases or print defects in the center, preventing a confident upper-bound call - no creases are confirmed visible but cannot be ruled out, keeping the ceiling at 5. Overall impression points to a VG-EX (4) raw card with honest uncertainty spanning 3-5.

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably wider than right (~65-70% left bias), top border slightly wider than bottom — roughly 65/35 L/R and 60/40 T/B, representing meaningful but not severe miscentering. Corners show visible rounding at all four tips, most pronounced at the lower-left and upper-right, consistent with a VG-EX to EX range. Surface shows moderate gloss loss with some general wear and toning consistent with a 55+ year old card; no obvious hard creases are visible from this scan though the seller's listing code '9cx' may hint at a crease — if a crease is present the grade would drop toward 3. Edges appear reasonably clean with no major tears; the COMC watermark obscures the center surface, preventing a confident read on print defects or fine surface wear.

Centering estimate: left border appears notably narrower than right border, roughly 70/30 L-R; top and bottom borders appear more balanced at approximately 60/40 T-B - centering is off but not catastrophic. Corner assessment is hampered by the mounting and photo angle, but all four corners appear rounded to some degree with the lower corners showing more rounding than the upper ones, consistent with a VG-EX to EX range. Surface shows some gloss loss visible at this resolution and there may be light handling wear, but no creases are clearly visible in this image. The seller's 'VG/EX' self-assessment appears reasonable; the range of 3-5 reflects uncertainty about corner sharpness and any hidden surface issues not resolvable from this single angled photo.

Centering estimate from photo: left border appears noticeably wider than right border, roughly 65-70% left / 30-35% right; top and bottom borders appear more even, approximately 55/45 top-to-bottom - centering is off but not severely so on the vertical axis. Corners appear to have light-to-moderate rounding visible at all four tips, consistent with EX to VG-EX range; no corner is sharp enough for NM territory. Surface gloss appears partially intact with some loss evident, and the card shows the typical toning/aging expected of a 58-year-old raw card. No creases are clearly visible from this distance photo, but the image resolution and angle prevent confident assessment of surface wear, fine corner condition, or edge quality - the range is widened accordingly.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (~55-60% right-heavy), top border appears slightly wider than bottom, estimating L/R roughly 60/40 and T/B roughly 55/45 — within NM-MT range on one axis but slightly off on the other. Corners: from this distance all four corners appear reasonably intact with only minor blunting visible, consistent with EX-MT to NM range; no sharp right-angle corners suggesting heavy rounding. Surface/gloss: the card shows what appears to be good color saturation and reasonable gloss retention, with no obvious creases visible in the artwork or border areas, though the slight card bow could indicate minor stress. Edges appear clean for a vintage 1966 Topps card; the rough-cut texture on left edge is typical for this set and not penalized. Back cannot be assessed from this photo, and corner sharpness cannot be confirmed at this resolution — range widened accordingly.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (roughly 55-60% left / 40-45% right horizontally); top border looks moderately larger than bottom (roughly 60/40 top-to-bottom) - centering appears within EX-NM range but glare prevents precision. The image artwork looks clean with good color saturation and no obvious print defects visible at this resolution. Corners cannot be reliably assessed through the acrylic holder and poly sleeve - this is the primary grade limiter; they appear to have some rounding but no severe damage is evident. No creases, staining, or tears are visible on the front, and the card appears to retain reasonable gloss, suggesting at least EX (5) condition. The wide range reflects genuine uncertainty from the holder obstruction and lack of corner/edge closeups - a back-of-card view and corner macro shots would be needed to narrow this meaningfully.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55-60% left bias), top and bottom borders look moderately even, roughly 55/45 L/R and 55/45 T/B — centering appears acceptable but not tight enough for upper grades. Corners show what appears to be mild rounding on at least the visible corners, consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Surface gloss appears present but the central watermark overlay obscures any print defects, scratches, or creases in the middle of the card face. Edges appear reasonably clean with no obvious miscut, though the rough-cut texture normal for this set is present. The watermark obstruction is the primary limiting factor in confidence — cannot rule out hidden surface wear or a crease beneath it, so the range is widened accordingly.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border noticeably wider than bottom (~65/35 T/B) - centering is acceptable for a PSA 5-6 range. Corners show light rounding on at least two visible corners (lower-left and lower-right), consistent with EX condition; no razor sharpness evident but no severe blunting either. Surface appears to retain decent gloss with no obvious creases visible, though the photo angle and sleeve glare make it difficult to rule out light surface wear or print defects definitively. Edges appear reasonably clean with no major nicks visible; seller's 'EX' self-assessment aligns with the visual evidence, placing this in the PSA 4-5 range with an outside chance at 6 if corners are better than they appear under magnification.
