1977 Topps Star Wars #1 Luke Skywalker — TAG (grade unconfirmed)

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — centering is not a primary concern here. The dominant defects are visible surface creases running diagonally across the face of the card (clearly seen crossing the image near Luke's face/chest area), significant blue border chipping or wear along the top edge, and what appears to be paper stress or wrinkling. Corners appear rounded rather than sharp — consistent with a VG (3) grade. The blue border on 1977 Topps Star Wars is notoriously prone to chipping and this card shows clear evidence of that. Combined with the visible surface creases and corner wear, a raw PSA grade of 3 (VG) is most likely, with 2 possible if creases are deeper than the photo suggests.

Centering estimate: left border notably wider than right (~65/35 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — off but not catastrophically so. Surface is the dominant concern: a prominent diagonal crease runs across the upper-center of the card photo, clearly visible and consistent with a fold crease rather than a printing artifact; additional lighter surface wrinkling is visible lower on the card face. Blue border shows chipping and wear consistent with heavy handling. All four corners appear rounded and show significant wear — no sharp corners remain. Edge wear is evident on all sides. The combination of a hard visible crease, rounded corners, and surface wrinkling lands this firmly in the Good (2) to VG (3) range; the crease alone prevents a VG-EX or higher grade.

Centering estimate: left border appears approximately 15-20% wider than right, top border slightly wider than bottom — roughly 60/40 L/R and 55/45 T/B, which is acceptable, but the slight left-heavy shift is noted. Blue border shows visible chipping and wear along all four edges, most pronounced at the top-left and bottom-right corners, which appear lightly rounded rather than sharp. Surface gloss appears partially intact but dulled in places, consistent with handling wear; no creases are clearly visible in this photo though the bottom-left corner near the starburst logo shows wear that could indicate a soft crease or fold — cannot confirm without better lighting. The card falls comfortably in the VG-EX to EX range; absence of confirmed creases keeps the floor at 3, while the corner and border wear prevent anything above 5 from this view.
