1966 Topps Batman Red Bat #13A Out on a Limb — Raw

Centering estimate: left border appears roughly 10-12% wider than right border, top border slightly wider than bottom — approximate L/R ratio 55/45 to 60/40 and T/B 55/45, which is acceptable for this series. Corners: the two visible corners (lower-left and lower-right) show light-to-moderate rounding consistent with EX to VG-EX range; upper corners are partially obscured by angle and glare but appear similarly worn. Surface: gloss appears mostly intact with no obvious creases visible, though the slight image angle and ambient reflection make a definitive surface call difficult — a hidden light crease cannot be ruled out. Edges appear reasonably clean without major fraying, though the rough-cut characteristic of this vintage Topps issue is present and is not penalized; overall condition reads most likely EX (5) with upside to EX-MT (6) if corners and surface are cleaner than they appear, and downside to VG-EX (4) if handling wear or a light crease is present on closer inspection.

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 off but not severely so, likely in the 80/20 to 85/15 range on the worst axis. White borders show visible toning/yellowing consistent with age, which is expected on vintage 1966 Topps but still affects grade. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners (lower-left and upper-left appear softer), consistent with a VG-EX to EX range. Surface shows some print snow/speckle noise typical of the issue but no obvious creases are visible from this scan; gloss appears partially present but reduced. The card stock and cut look standard for the series — no miscut detected. Back is not visible so hidden flaws (creases, stains, writing) cannot be ruled out, warranting a conservative floor of 3.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (~60-65% right-heavy), top border slightly wider than bottom, approximating L/R ~65/35 and T/B ~55/45 — borderline acceptable for EX-MT but trending toward EX territory. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners visible from this angle (lower left and lower right appear softened), consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Surface appears to retain moderate gloss with no obvious creases detected, though the single-angle photo limits crease detection on the lower half. Edges appear reasonably clean with no miscut detected and no adjacent card printing visible; some minor edge roughness is expected and normal for the 1966 Topps Batman issue and is not penalized here.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (approx 55/45 L-R), top border appears slightly wider than bottom (approx 55/45 T-B) — centering is acceptable and does not cap the grade. Corners: upper-left and lower-right corners show visible light rounding under inspection; upper-right appears slightly better; lower-left is borderline. No sharp mint corners are evident, consistent with EX (5) territory. Edges appear reasonably clean with no major nicks visible, though the rough cut texture normal for 1966 Topps is present and not penalized. Surface shows good color saturation with no visible creases, staining, or major print defects detected; gloss appears moderate but not full, suggesting some age-related surface wear. The sleeve makes absolute corner and edge assessment difficult, and the back is unseen, so range is widened accordingly — a hidden crease or heavier corner wear could push this toward VG-EX (4).
