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

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 roughly 10-12% wider than right border (approx 60/40 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (approx 55/45 T/B) — centering is passable but not tight. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners (lower-left and upper-right appear most worn), consistent with VG-EX to EX range. Edges appear reasonably clean with no obvious notching, though the rough cut typical of this issue is present. Surface shows moderate gloss loss and some toning/aging on the white borders; the COMC watermark obscures the center of the card making definitive surface crease assessment impossible — no obvious hard crease is visible in the artwork but cannot be ruled out. The card sits solidly in the 3–5 range; absent a confirmed crease it likely grades 4 (VG-EX), but hidden surface issues under the watermark could push it to 3 (VG).

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 60/40 L-R favoring right), top border slightly wider than bottom (approximately 55/45 T-B) — centering is acceptable but not tight. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners (lower-left and upper-left most apparent), consistent with VG-EX to EX range. Surface shows some toning/yellowing in the yellow background area which is typical for this vintage issue but does contribute to gloss loss. Edges appear reasonably clean with no obvious major chips or tears visible. The COMC watermark obscures the center surface, preventing confident assessment of any surface creases or print defects there; corner wear and overall presentation suggest a 4 VG-EX is most likely, with 5 EX possible if corners are slightly better than they appear and surface is cleaner than the photo reveals.

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably wider than right (roughly 65/35 L-R), top border slightly wider than bottom (approximately 60/40 T-B) — centering is off but not catastrophically so. All four corners show visible rounding and wear, consistent with a VG to VG-EX card; no corner is sharp enough for EX-MT or better. Surface shows some gloss loss and what appears to be light handling wear across the face; no obvious hard crease is visible in this image, though the seller's title code '9cx' may indicate a crease — if a crease is present, the grade floors closer to 3. Edges appear slightly rough but that is normal for the 1966 Topps Batman issue and is not penalized. Without confirmed crease, a 4 (VG-EX) is the most likely grade; a confirmed crease would push this to 3 (VG).

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (~60% right-heavy), top border slightly wider than bottom — approximate L/R ratio 60/40 and T/B ratio 55/45, so centering is passable but off. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners visible in this scan, consistent with VG-EX to EX range. Surface shows some general wear and toning consistent with a 57-year-old card; gloss appears partially retained but not strong. Edges appear reasonably clean with no major chips or tears visible, though the lower left area shows some softness. No creases are definitively visible from this photo, but surface texture and corner wear push this into the 4–5 range; the seller's '9cx' annotation likely refers to a lot or internal code, not a grade, and no self-disclosed creases were noted.

Centering: left border appears wider than right (approximately 70/30 left-right), top and bottom borders look roughly 55/45 — horizontal off-centering is the primary concern. Corners: all four corners show visible rounding, most apparent at top-left and bottom-left, consistent with VG to VG-EX wear. Surface: there is a visible crease or wrinkle running diagonally near the lower-left quadrant of the card, and the lower-left corner area shows what appears to be a stress mark or fold line; gloss loss is evident across the face. Edges: cuts appear consistent with vintage 1966 Topps production and are not penalized, but the overall combination of rounded corners, surface crease, and off-centering lands this squarely in the VG (3) range, with the crease potentially pushing it toward GOOD (2) under close PSA scrutiny.

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: 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 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.
