1966 Topps Batman Blue Bat #39B Caught in a Cavern — Raw

Centering: left border appears approximately 10-12% narrower than right, top border slightly wider than bottom — estimating roughly 60/40 L/R and 55/45 T/B, which is acceptable but not tight. Corners show visible rounding at all four, most notably the top-left and bottom-left, consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Edges appear reasonably clean with the typical rough-cut texture normal for this 1966 Topps issue — no hard penalization applied. Surface shows some gloss loss and what appears to be minor toning/aging on the white border areas, consistent with a mid-grade vintage card; no obvious creases are visible from this angle but the back cannot be assessed. Back condition and potential hidden surface wear prevent a tighter range — a crease on reverse would pull this toward a 4, clean back could support a 5-6.

Centering estimate: left border appears approximately 10-12% wider than right border, top border slightly narrower than bottom — roughly 60/40 left-right and 55/45 top-bottom, which is acceptable for the grade range but leaning off. Corners show visible rounding at all four tips, most notably at the bottom-left and top-right, consistent with a VG-EX to EX range. Surface shows some general gloss loss and light toning typical of the era; no creases are definitively visible from this image but the watermark obscures the center surface. Edges appear slightly rough but within normal 1966 Topps manufacturing tolerance; overall the card presents as a solid VG-EX (4) with EX (5) possible if surface is cleaner than it appears under the watermark.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 60/40 L-R favoring right), top border slightly wider than bottom (approx 55/45 T-B) — centering is off but not severely miscut; no adjacent card printing visible on edges. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners visible in frame, consistent with VG-EX to VG range. Surface gloss appears partially present but there is noticeable gloss loss/toning on the white border areas. No obvious hard crease is visible in this photo, though the mounting obscures edges and corner detail significantly. The seller's VG/EX self-assessment is plausible; without corner closeups and a back inspection, the range must be widened. Card appears to be a legitimate raw 1966 Topps Batman Blue Bat in mid-grade condition.

Centering estimate: left border appears notably wider than right (approx 70/30 left-to-right), top and bottom borders appear roughly 60/40 top-heavy — centering is off but not catastrophically so. All four corners show visible rounding, consistent with a well-handled vintage card, with the bottom-left corner appearing the most worn. Surface shows moderate gloss loss across the image area, and there is some general soiling or toning particularly toward the edges. No obvious hard creases are visible in this photo though the card stock appears softened from handling; if a crease is present it may be hidden by the scan angle, so the floor is kept at 2.

Centering estimate from visible borders: left border appears slightly narrower than right (~55/45 L/R), top border appears moderately tighter than bottom (~60/40 T/B) - centering is serviceable but not tight enough for 8+. The poly sleeve and stack angle prevent reliable corner inspection; corners appear to have some rounding but no catastrophic damage is visible, suggesting EX to NM range. Surface shows reasonable gloss retention through the sleeve with no obvious creases or major print defects visible, though print snow common to this set may be present. The wide range (4-7) reflects genuine uncertainty from sleeve obstruction, stacking, and the oblique shooting angle - a corner closeup and back scan would be needed to tighten this estimate significantly.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55-60% left / 40-45% right), top border appears slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — centering reads approximately 60/40 or better on both axes, which is EX-MT to NM territory. No miscut observed. Corners appear reasonably sharp with only very light wear visible on the lower-right corner; upper corners look slightly better but no true razor points are evident at this resolution, consistent with EX-MT (6) rather than NM (7). Surface gloss appears intact with no obvious creases, staining, or print defects beyond expected vintage print texture/snow. The back is not visible, limiting confidence; if the back shows clean gloss and no issues, a 7 is achievable, but from this single front image a PSA 6 (EX-MT) is the most defensible single estimate.

Centering estimate: left border noticeably wider than right (~65/35 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B), so horizontal centering is the primary concern but not catastrophically off. Corners show visible rounding on all four corners, most evident at bottom-left and top-right, consistent with a VG grade. The white border shows toning/wear and there is moderate gloss loss across the surface, typical of a well-handled vintage card. No obvious creases are visible from this single front-facing image, though the sleeve obscures fine surface detail; seller's VG designation appears reasonable, placing this solidly in the PSA 3 range with a possible stretch to 4 if corners are slightly better than they appear and no back defects exist.
