Index grading notes
Centering estimate: left/right borders appear approximately 60/40 and top/bottom approximately 55/45 — acceptable for the sticker series. The red die-cut border shows no obvious chipping or peeling visible at this resolution, though the upper-left and lower-right corners of the sticker peel layer appear to have very slight rounding or softening. Surface gloss appears reasonably intact with no obvious creases or staining visible on the image area. The photo does not provide close-up corner detail, so minor corner wear could be hiding; the range reflects that uncertainty, and the sticker format (die-cut) means edge condition of the peel layer is an additional grading factor PSA considers carefully.
This is a 1977 Topps Star Wars Series 1 STICKER #21 (red border, die-cut style, copyright line visible at bottom), not a base card — collectors should note the format distinction. Centering appears approximately 60/40 left-to-right and 65/35 top-to-bottom, which is acceptable for this issue. Surface appears clean with reasonable gloss retention and no visible creases. Corners are difficult to assess precisely at this resolution but appear slightly soft rather than sharp, suggesting light handling wear consistent with an EX-MT to NM range; the red border shows no obvious chipping. Back cannot be assessed, and corner closeups are unavailable, so the range is widened accordingly.
Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~60/40 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — centering is acceptable but not tight. Blue borders show visible chipping and wear along all four edges, consistent with typical 1977 Star Wars handling wear. Corners appear rounded at two or more corners (most visible at top-left and bottom-left), suggesting light-to-moderate rounding consistent with a VG-EX to EX range. Surface shows some print grain/aging and slight gloss loss but no obvious creases are visible in this photo; however, the image angle and resolution limit crease detection with confidence. Overall condition reads as a well-used but presentable card, estimated PSA 4 (VG-EX) most likely, with EX (5) possible if corners are better than they appear and no creases are present on reverse.
