1977 Topps Star Wars Stickers #24 Droids on the sand planet — Raw

Centering estimate: the black film-strip border appears slightly wider on the left (~55%) versus right (~45%) and top (~55%) versus bottom (~45%), suggesting mild but not severe miscentering, roughly 55/45 — acceptable for sticker issues. Corners appear to show light rounding, particularly visible at the bottom-left and bottom-right, consistent with a PSA 5 EX range; no razor-sharp corners are evident. Surface shows some yellowing/toning on the white card stock around the sticker, which is typical age-related wear for a 1977-78 issue stored unslabbed. The sleeve glare obscures the upper third of the image, preventing confident assessment of top corners and any potential surface creases or staining; the range is widened accordingly and confidence is LOW until corner and back inspection can be performed.

Centering estimate: left border ~15%, right border ~20%, top border ~12%, top-heavy/right-heavy shift — approximately 55/45 L/R and 60/40 T/B, which is acceptable for the grade range. The film-strip die-cut border shows some chipping or wear along the black edges, particularly visible on the lower-left and upper corners which appear softly rounded rather than sharp. Surface gloss appears moderate with some dulling visible, consistent with light handling wear. Corner detail is partially obscured by the holder and image resolution, preventing confident corner assessment; the range is widened accordingly to account for possible hidden rounding or edge dings.

Centering estimate: left/right borders appear roughly 45/55 and top/bottom approximately 50/50, so centering is within acceptable range for the set. The COMC watermark obscures the lower-center surface, limiting assessment of that region. Corners appear to have some rounding or softening — at least two corners (bottom-left and bottom-right) show wear consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Surface gloss appears reduced but no obvious creases are visible; the sticker's black film-strip border shows no significant chipping. Overall the card presents in the EX range, though the watermark and image resolution prevent confident assessment of fine surface and corner detail.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (approximately 55/45 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (approximately 60/40 T/B) — centering is acceptable but not tight. Corners show light-to-moderate rounding on all four, most visible at the bottom-left and bottom-right, consistent with a card that has seen gentle handling. Surface gloss appears partially intact with some dulling visible across the image area, no obvious creases detected from this view. Edges appear reasonably clean with no major chipping or tears visible, but the white border stock shows typical aging/toning; the two-asterisk copyright line suggests this may be an O-Pee-Chee sticker rather than Topps, which cannot be confirmed from the front alone but is worth noting for set identification purposes.

Centering estimate: the filmstrip border appears slightly left-heavy — left border roughly 55-60% of right border width, so approximately 60/40 L/R; top and bottom borders look relatively balanced at roughly 55/45 T/B, within acceptable range. Corners show mild rounding on at least the visible lower-left corner; upper corners appear slightly better but softness in the photo limits precision. Surface shows no obvious creases but there is some light gloss loss and what appears to be minor toning or wear to the sticker face — consistent with a handled example. Edges appear reasonably clean with no visible tears or major chips, though the die-cut filmstrip border makes edge assessment harder than on a standard card; overall condition reads solidly EX (5) with an outside chance of EX-MT (6) if corners are sharper than they appear.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right by a noticeable margin, approximately 70/30 left-to-right; top and bottom borders look closer to 55/45 — centering is off but not severely so. Corners show visible rounding on at least the bottom-left and top-left, consistent with EX to VG-EX wear; the right corners appear slightly better but still rounded. Surface shows some light scuffing or loss of gloss, particularly in the upper portion of the image area, and a faint vertical handling line is possible near the center-left of the image. Edges appear reasonably clean without major nicks. Overall condition points to EX (5) as most likely, with EX-MT (6) possible if corner wear is less than it appears and the surface flaw is minimal; VG-EX (4) is the floor if the apparent gloss loss and corner rounding are more pronounced than the single photo reveals.
