Index grading notes

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably wider than right (~65-70% left / 30-35% right L/R), top border wider than bottom (~60/40 T/B), so centering is off but not catastrophic. The corners are the primary grade-killer here — all four show visible rounding and wear, with the top-left and bottom-left corners appearing the most soft/rounded, consistent with a VG card. Surface shows scattered handling wear and loss of gloss across the image area, with some visible scuffing or light soiling particularly in the lower portion. Edges show moderate roughness consistent with vintage handling rather than cutting artifacts. No obvious hard creases are visible from this scan, but the gloss loss and corner rounding firmly anchor this in the VG (3) range; a clean 4 (VG-EX) seems optimistic given the corner condition, though the absence of a confirmed crease leaves that possibility open.

Centering estimate: left/right borders appear roughly 60/40 favoring left, top/bottom appears approximately 65/35 favoring top - moderate but not severe miscentering. The card is mounted on a red backing board with tape/adhesive visible at edges, which is itself a significant concern as mounting damage to the back could be grade-killer regardless of front condition. Corners at this resolution appear rounded with visible wear, consistent with a VG to VG-EX range at best, and the surface shows some gloss loss and age toning typical of the era. The mounting/adhesive situation is the primary unknown - if the card back is damaged from mounting, grade could fall to 1-2; the range is widened accordingly due to inability to assess back damage, corner wear precisely, or edge condition fully.
