1977 Topps Star Wars #49 The rebels monitor the raid — Raw

Centering estimate: left border ~20%, right border ~80% — notably right-heavy, approximating 75/25 L/R; top/bottom appear closer to 55/45, so top/bottom is acceptable but left/right is a meaningful concern and likely the primary grade limiter. The blue borders show some light chipping/wear visible along the right and bottom edges, consistent with this set's known fragility. Corners appear lightly worn — not sharp mint corners, with slight rounding visible particularly on the lower-right, consistent with EX to EX-MT range. Surface gloss appears reasonably intact with no obvious creases visible, and print quality looks acceptable with no significant print defects noted. Without corner macro shots or the card back, a range of PSA 5–7 is appropriate, with 6 (EX-MT) as the most likely grade given the off-centering and light edge/corner wear.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 60-65% right-heavy), top border slightly wider than bottom — approximate L/R ~65/35 and T/B ~55/45, placing centering in the NM-EX-MT range. Corners: at this resolution the corners appear to have light rounding or softening, consistent with EX-MT to NM range — no sharp razor corners evident but no severe blunting either. Blue border shows some edge chipping/wear typical of this issue, visible particularly along the left and top edges. Surface appears to retain reasonable gloss with no obvious creases, though the photo angle limits confident assessment of surface integrity. A grade of 6 (EX-MT) is most likely given the off-centering and apparent light corner/edge wear; NM (7) is possible if corners prove sharper than they appear.
