1977 Topps Star Wars Stickers #16 Chewbacca

Centering: the red die-cut border appears reasonably even left/right (approximately 55/45) and slightly tighter at the top than the bottom (roughly 60/40 top/bottom) — within acceptable NM-MT range. The surface gloss reads well with no obvious creases, staining, or print defects visible. Corners on a die-cut sticker are judged at the rectangular card corners rather than the die-cut edge: the four card corners appear slightly soft but not heavily rounded, consistent with a NM or EX-MT range. No edge chipping of the red border is visible from this photo, which is a common defect on this issue. The back and corner sharpness cannot be fully assessed from this single front image, so the range is widened accordingly; a grade of 7 NM is the most likely outcome.

Centering on the sticker itself appears roughly 60/40 left-to-right and 55/45 top-to-bottom within the die-cut border — not a centering concern at this grade level. The die-cut edge shows some minor roughness consistent with the era but no chips or tears visible. Surface gloss appears moderately intact with some dulling evident across the image area, consistent with an EX range card; no creases are visible from this angle but the photo does not provide tight corner closeups. All four corners of the sticker appear to show light-to-moderate rounding — consistent with EX to EX-MT range — and the red border shows no significant chipping; the back is unexamined so adhesive condition, which is critical for sticker grades, cannot be assessed here and could push the grade lower if residue or peeling is present.

Centering on the sticker itself appears reasonably well-centered left-to-right (approximately 55/45) and top-to-bottom (approximately 60/40), within acceptable range for a mid-to-high grade. The die-cut red border shows no obvious chipping or significant edge wear visible at this resolution. Corners appear lightly worn with very minor rounding, consistent with EX-MT to NM range. Surface gloss appears largely intact with no obvious creases, though the compressed scan resolution makes it difficult to fully assess fine surface scuffs or print defects; the copyright line '16 ★ ©1977 20TH CENTURY-FOX FILM CORP.' is clearly legible, consistent with Topps or O-Pee-Chee (indistinguishable from front). The seller's 'EX+' self-description aligns with what is visible; range is set at 5–7 to account for corner and surface details hidden by single-image resolution.

Centering on the sticker die-cut border: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top and bottom borders appear roughly equal (~50/50 T/B) — centering is acceptable for the grade range. Corners on the outer card stock appear to show moderate rounding, consistent with EX (5) to VG-EX (4) wear; no razor-sharp corners are visible. Surface gloss on the sticker image area appears reasonably intact with no obvious creases visible, though the scan quality limits close inspection of subtle surface wear. The seller's 'EX' self-description aligns with the visible evidence; the range is widened slightly due to scan darkness obscuring corner and edge detail on the lower portions of the card.
