1977 Topps Star Wars Stickers #20 R2-D2 and C-3PO — Raw

Centering estimate: left/right borders appear roughly 55/45 horizontally and top/bottom roughly 60/40 - acceptable for the series. The image is soft-focused making precise corner and surface assessment difficult. Corners appear to show some rounding or wear, consistent with a grade in the 4-6 range, but no obvious hard crease is visible. The red sticker border shows no dramatic chipping evident from this distance, and gloss appears moderate with some surface wear likely. The photo blur prevents confident corner and edge assessment; range is widened accordingly - a sharper photo or back inspection could meaningfully shift this estimate.

Centering estimate: left black border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — centering is reasonably close and not an immediate concern. The sticker image itself sits well within the red border frame. Corner inspection at this angle and resolution shows the corners appear somewhat rounded, particularly visible at lower-left and upper-left, suggesting at least light to moderate wear consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Surface gloss appears partially intact but the image shows some age-related dullness and possible minor surface wear; no obvious creases are visible from this photo but the angle obscures the lower-left area. Edges appear intact without major chipping of the black border, which is the common vulnerability on this set. Back condition is unknown, and the photo angle limits precise corner and edge assessment — range is widened accordingly.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55L/45R), top border noticeably wider than bottom (~60T/40B) — centering is off but within NM-EX territory, no miscut detected. Corners appear to have light rounding on at least two visible corners (bottom-left and bottom-right show slight softening) consistent with an EX-MT range card. The pink/red border shows no obvious chipping or major color wear, and the image surface looks relatively clean with decent gloss remaining under the sleeve. The sleeve glare obscures the upper corners and portions of the surface, preventing a confident read on any micro-creases or print defects; back condition is unknown, which widens the range downward.

Centering estimate: left/right borders appear approximately 60/40 favoring left slightly, top/bottom appears roughly 55/45 — within NM-MT range on both axes. The red sticker border shows no obvious chipping or heavy wear. Corners appear reasonably sharp but at this scan resolution fine corner wear on 1-2 corners cannot be ruled out, which would push toward a 7 NM rather than 8 NM-MT. Surface gloss appears intact with no visible creases or staining. Back is not visible, and corner micro-wear cannot be fully assessed at this resolution, so the range is kept wide at 6-8; the most likely grade is 7 NM assuming at least minor corner softness typical of this era.

Centering estimate: left/right borders appear approximately 60/40 favoring left, top/bottom approximately 55/45 favoring top — acceptable for the set but not tight. The red sticker border shows no obvious chipping or missing color along the edges, which is a positive sign for this notoriously fragile border. Corners appear to have light wear — not sharp enough for NM-MT but not heavily rounded; consistent with EX-MT range. Surface gloss appears reasonably intact with no visible creases, print defects, or staining noted. Cannot assess the back or get precise corner closeups from this single seller photo, so the range is widened accordingly; a hidden crease or back issue could push this toward a 5.
