1966 Topps Batman Blue Bat #36B A Pressing Position

Centering estimate: left border approximately 4mm, right border approximately 7-8mm, giving roughly 65/35 L/R; top border approximately 5mm, bottom border approximately 6mm, so T/B is close to 55/45 — horizontal off-centering is the primary concern. Corners: the upper-right corner shows a visible crease or surface wrinkle in the upper-right quadrant of the card (visible in the photo), and corner wear appears present on at least two corners with some rounding evident — consistent with a VG-EX (4) range. Edges appear reasonably clean with no gross nicks visible, normal for vintage rough-cut Topps stock. Surface gloss appears partially present but diminished, consistent with age; no overt creases through the image center are detected though the upper-right area has a stress mark or crease that is a meaningful defect. Back cannot be assessed, and corner detail is limited by photo angle, 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 (~60/40 T/B) — centering is acceptable for EX range but not tight enough for NM territory. Corners show light-to-moderate rounding on at least two visible corners (lower-left and upper-left appear the softest), consistent with EX (5) rather than EX-MT (6). Card edges show the typical rough-cut texture normal for this 1966 Topps issue and should not be penalized heavily. Surface gloss appears partially intact with some gloss loss visible across the face — no creases are evident from this angle, but the image is not a macro shot so a hairline cannot be fully ruled out. The seller's 'EX-NM' claim is optimistic; the corner wear visible even at this resolution places the card more comfortably at PSA 5 EX, with a stretch to 6 EX-MT if corners are sharper than they appear, and a floor of 4 VG-EX if hidden surface issues exist.

Centering estimate: left border appears notably wider than right (~65-70% left), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55-60% top), giving approximate L/R ratio of 65/35 and T/B of 55/45 — off-center but not severely so. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners visible in frame (upper-left and lower-right appear most affected), consistent with a VG-EX range. Surface shows some gloss loss and what appears to be minor toning/aging on the white border areas, typical for 56-year-old Topps stock. No obvious hard creases are visible in the image, but the top-right corner shows what may be a small ding or stress mark; the back is unseen so hidden creases cannot be ruled out, which is the primary source of range uncertainty.

Centering: left border appears noticeably wider than right (roughly 70/30 left-to-right), top and bottom borders look relatively even at approximately 55/45 — the left-right imbalance is the primary centering concern and pushes toward a grade ceiling around EX-MT at best. Corners: all four corners show some degree of rounding/softening visible at this scan resolution; no corner appears truly sharp, consistent with EX to VG-EX wear. Edges: the cut appears reasonably clean with no obvious fraying, consistent with the set's known rough-cut characteristics which should not be over-penalized. Surface: gloss appears partially present with some light wear or surface scuffing visible across the image area; no creases are discernible from this photo, but minor gloss loss is evident. Back is not visible so staining, creases, or writing cannot be ruled out — range is widened accordingly.
