1966 Topps Batman Red Bat #41A Duel of Death

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 60-65% right-heavy), top border slightly wider than bottom — approximate L/R ratio ~65/35, T/B ~55/45; centering is noticeably off horizontally, consistent with EX-range cap. Corners: at this resolution all four corners appear to show light-to-moderate rounding, no sharp points visible, suggesting wear in the EX to VG-EX range. Edges appear reasonably clean with no gross chipping, consistent with the rough-cut norm for this 1966 Topps issue. Surface shows adequate gloss retention with no obvious creases visible in this photo, though the image compression limits crease detection; the seller's 'ow1' notation likely denotes off-white to white backs which does not affect the numeric grade. Overall condition evidence supports EX (5) as the point estimate, with VG-EX (4) possible if corner rounding is worse than visible, and EX-MT (6) possible if centering reads better in hand.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (~60% of right border width), suggesting approximately 60/40 L/R off-center; top and bottom borders appear more balanced at roughly 55/45 T/B. Corners show visible light rounding on at least the lower-left and upper-left corners, consistent with EX to VG-EX range; right-side corners are harder to assess but appear slightly better. Edges look reasonably clean with typical vintage rough-cut texture for this set - no chipping apparent. Surface shows decent residual gloss with minor print texture/snow visible in the lighter areas, no obvious creases detectable from this photo, but the back is unseen and could reveal hidden flaws. Overall presentation suggests a mid-grade EX (5) as the most likely outcome, with EX-MT (6) possible if corners hold up under closer inspection and VG-EX (4) if back-side wear or a light crease is present.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 60/40 L-R favoring right), top and bottom borders appear close to 55/45 — centering is acceptable but not tight. Corners at this resolution appear to show light wear on at least two corners (lower left and lower right show slight softening), consistent with EX-MT to NM range. Edges appear reasonably clean with no obvious nicks visible. Surface gloss looks present and largely intact with no obvious creases or staining detectable; print quality appears typical for this vintage issue. Back cannot be assessed, and corner detail is limited at this zoom level, so the range is widened slightly to account for hidden wear.

Centering: left border appears approximately 8–9% of card width, right border approximately 10–11%, giving left/right ratio near 55/45 to 60/40 — acceptable; top border roughly 10%, bottom border roughly 12–13%, top/bottom near 55/45 — solid overall centering. Corners appear fairly clean with only very light wear visible on the lower-left corner; the other three corners look reasonably sharp at this resolution but fine tip wear cannot be ruled out from a single photo. Edges appear clean with no obvious chipping or rough cuts beyond normal 1966 Topps production variance. Surface gloss appears intact with no visible creases, staining, or print defects, though the COMC watermark partially obscures the center of the image preventing full surface assessment. The card presents as EX-MT (6) to NM (7) with a conservative lean toward 6 given the inability to confirm corner sharpness at full resolution.
