1977 Topps Star Wars #37 Cornered in the labyrinth — Raw

Centering estimate: left/right borders appear roughly 55/45 to 60/40, top/bottom closer to 60/40 — acceptable for the series but slightly top-heavy; no miscut visible. Blue border shows light chipping/wear consistent with EX-MT range, most visible along the top and left edges under close inspection. Corners appear to have mild rounding — no sharp points evident at this resolution, consistent with light play wear putting this in the EX to EX-MT range. Surface gloss appears mostly intact with no visible creases, staining, or print defects beyond typical 1977 Star Wars print snow; full corner assessment is limited without macro shots, so the range is widened accordingly.

Centering estimate: left blue border appears slightly narrower than right (~55/45 L/R), top border modestly wider than bottom (~60/40 T/B) — centering is acceptable for a PSA 7-8 range. Blue borders on this series chip readily; the right and bottom borders show some minor chipping/wear consistent with light handling. Corners appear slightly soft at the tips — no obvious rounding but not razor-sharp, suggesting light edge wear consistent with NM rather than NM-MT. Surface gloss looks solid with no visible creases or staining, and the image area appears clean. Without corner macro shots and a view of the reverse, a precise grade is difficult; the range of 6–8 reflects that uncertainty, with 7 (NM) as the most probable outcome given the visible border chipping typical of this blue-series issue.

Centering (left/right): blue border appears roughly 55% left / 45% right — acceptable; top/bottom: top border appears noticeably thinner than the bottom, estimating approximately 65% bottom / 35% top, so vertical centering is off but not severely. The seller's title includes '[C]' which commonly denotes a crease — no crease is plainly visible at this resolution but cannot be ruled out; if present it would push the grade toward 3-4. Blue border shows modest chipping/wear consistent with a used card, with some white stress marks visible along the edges, particularly the left edge. Corners appear lightly to moderately rounded — no razor sharpness evident, suggesting EX to VG-EX range; surface gloss appears intact with no obvious staining or major print defects visible. Without a back view or corner macro shots, a crease cannot be confirmed or excluded, hence the range stays wide.
