1977 Topps Star Wars #44 Han and Chewie shoot it out! — Raw

Centering estimate: left border appears roughly 3-4mm, right border 5-6mm, top border ~4mm, bottom border ~5mm — approximately 60/40 L/R and 55/45 T/B, so centering alone is not catastrophic. However, the blue border shows severe chipping and wear distributed across all four edges, which is typical of this set but here is extreme. All four corners appear visibly rounded and blunted, consistent with heavy handling. Multiple surface creases are visible — at least one prominent diagonal crease runs through the upper-right quadrant, and additional stress lines appear near the lower-left; this alone would cap the grade at VG (3) or below. Gloss loss is significant across the surface. The combination of rounded corners, multiple visible creases, and heavy border chipping places this card firmly in the Good-to-VG range (2–3), with the crease severity pushing the point estimate to a 2.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly narrower than right (~55/45 L/R), top border noticeably thinner than bottom (~60/40 T/B) - centering is passable but not tight. The blue borders show visible chipping/wear, particularly noticeable along the left and bottom edges, which is a characteristic flaw of this set but still grade-relevant. At least one corner (lower-left) appears to show rounding or soft wear; the upper-left corner also looks slightly dinged. There is what appears to be a diagonal crease or surface wrinkle running through the lower-left quadrant of the card image, which if confirmed as a crease would push this toward a 3 VG. Gloss appears moderate with some loss. Without a clean corner macro or back scan, the range stays wide at 3-5.

Centering estimate: left/right borders appear approximately 70/30 favoring left, top/bottom roughly 60/40 — centering is noticeably off horizontally, likely landing in the 75/25 range which would push toward EX or below. Blue borders on the left appear wider than right, a common trait of this set but still penalized. Corners: the lower-left corner shows visible rounding/wear visible even at this resolution; upper corners appear slightly soft but not sharply rounded. Surface shows some loss of gloss and possible light handling wear but no obvious creases are discernible from this photo. The blue border chipping typical of 1977 Topps Star Wars is difficult to fully assess at this resolution and with the watermark overlay partially obscuring the lower portion of the card, which limits confidence and warrants a wider range.
