1977 Topps Star Wars Series 1 Card #39 MISCUT/MISPRINT ERROR
Estimated grade: 2 (1–3) · MEDIUM confidence · asking —

MISCUT confirmed: the card is visibly off-center with the image and borders skewed — left border is noticeably narrower than right, and the top border appears wider than bottom, suggesting a significant miscut during production. Estimated L/R ratio approximately 85/15 or worse; T/B approximately 70/30. The blue border on the left edge appears thin to non-existent in areas and there is visible chipping/wear consistent with the notorious fragility of the 1977 Topps Star Wars blue borders. Corner wear is visible even at this photo resolution, with at least two corners showing rounding. The miscut alone caps this card at PSA 2-3 under standard grading; combined with border chipping and corner wear, a grade of 2 is most likely. Miscut error cards have a dedicated collector market and may carry a premium despite the low numeric grade — PSA sometimes qualifies these as 'OC' (off-center) or notes the miscut on the label.
