1977 Topps Star Wars #26 A horrified Luke sees his family killed — Raw

Centering: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border notably thinner than bottom (~60/40 T/B favoring bottom) — centering is acceptable, no OC flag warranted. Blue border shows moderate chipping/wear consistent with this series, particularly visible along the left and bottom edges where the border color appears lightly worn. Corners: the two visible bottom corners (bottom-left partially obscured by the logo overlay) show light rounding — not sharp enough for NM-MT territory but no severe blunting; top corners appear slightly better from this angle but cannot be fully confirmed. Surface: there is a notable diagonal crease or surface wrinkle visible in the upper-left quadrant of the photo image (the light-sky area), which is a meaningful defect capping this card below EX-MT (6); gloss appears moderate with some loss consistent with EX (5) grade. No visible staining or paper loss detected; the back cannot be assessed from this image.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55-60% left), top border appears slightly wider than bottom (~55-60% top), so roughly 60/40 L-R and 55/45 T-B — acceptable for the grade range. Blue border shows minor chipping/wear on at least two corners (bottom-left and bottom-right appear slightly rounded/worn), consistent with EX to EX-MT territory. Surface gloss appears present but moderately reduced with some light wear visible; no obvious creases detected from this scan, though image softness limits certainty. Edges appear clean with no visible major nicks; a closeup of corners and the back would be needed to confirm upper end of range.

Centering estimate: left blue border ~18%, right ~82% — the card reads noticeably right-heavy, approximately 80/20 L/R; top/bottom appears closer to 55/45 and is acceptable. This L/R centering alone caps the grade around EX-MT (6) territory. Corners appear to have light wear — the two visible right corners show slight softening but no significant rounding, consistent with a 6-7 range. Blue borders show no obvious chipping or fraying along the edges in this scan, which is a positive sign for this issue. Surface gloss appears intact with no visible creases, staining, or print defects, though the scan resolution limits assessment of fine scratches or print snow; the grade range is widened slightly to account for what cannot be confirmed.
