1977 Topps Star Wars Artoo-Detoo is Abducted by Jawas! #296
Estimated grade: 6 (5–7) · MEDIUM confidence · asking $12.33

Centering estimate: left/right borders appear approximately 65/35 favoring left, top/bottom roughly 60/40 favoring top — acceptable for a PSA 6-7 range but not tight enough for 8+. Corners appear lightly worn with some rounding visible at the bottom corners under inspection; top corners look slightly sharper but not crisp enough for NM territory. The orange border shows no obvious chipping or major edge wear visible at this resolution. Surface gloss appears moderate with no obvious creases, scratches, or print defects detected, though the slightly compressed photo angle limits full corner and edge assessment — back condition is unknown.

1977 Topps Star Wars Artoo-Detoo is Abducted by Jawas! #296
Estimated grade: 7 (6–8) · MEDIUM confidence · asking $10.03

Centering estimate: left border ~20%, right border ~25%, top border ~18%, bottom border ~37% — significant top-to-bottom imbalance (~roughly 67/33 T/B) consistent with the wandering centering common to this series, left/right is mild at roughly 55/45. The heavy bottom shift is the primary grade limiter. Corners appear reasonably sharp in this image with no obvious rounding visible, suggesting at minimum EX-MT condition; the orange border shows no obvious chipping or wear. Surface gloss appears intact with no visible creases or staining, but the photo is not a tight closeup so fine corner tips and edge wear cannot be fully confirmed. Given the centering issue alone this card likely grades NM (7) at best, with NM-MT (8) possible if the bottom border is less severe in hand and corners are cleaner than they appear.

Estimated grade: 6 (5–7) · MEDIUM confidence · asking $7.73

Centering estimate: left/right borders appear approximately 65/35 left-heavy, and top/bottom roughly 55/45 — centering is off but not severely so. Corners appear to show light wear on at least two corners visible from this distance, with minor rounding consistent with EX-MT to NM range. Orange border shows no obvious heavy chipping but some edge texture is present at the left side. Surface gloss appears reasonably intact with no visible creases, staining, or print defects noted; however, the protective sleeve slightly diffuses corner detail and a back-of-card assessment is impossible, limiting confidence in the upper estimate.
