1977 Topps Star Wars Stickers #34 The star warriors aim for action! — Raw

Centering: left red border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top and bottom borders look close to even (~50/50 T/B) — centering is acceptable and not grade-limiting. Corners cannot be closely inspected at this resolution but appear to show minor rounding consistent with light handling wear, no sharp points visible. Surface shows decent gloss retention with no obvious creases, staining, or print defects visible. The red sticker border shows no significant chipping; overall the card presents in the EX-MT to NM range, but corner and edge detail at full resolution could push the grade either direction.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (approx 55/45 L/R), top border noticeably wider than bottom (approx 65/35 T/B) — centering is off but not severely so. Corners: all four corners show visible rounding/softening, particularly the bottom two, which appear more worn; consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Surface: moderate gloss loss is visible across the image area, likely some handling wear; no creases are clearly detectable from this photo but cannot be ruled out entirely given the gloss loss pattern. Edges: the die-cut sticker border edges appear intact with no major chips or tears visible, though the sticker format makes edge assessment less straightforward than base cards. Overall condition reads as EX (5) with some possibility of sliding to VG-EX (4) if close inspection reveals hidden surface issues or corner rounding more severe than visible here.

Centering estimate: left/right borders appear roughly 55/45 and top/bottom roughly 60/40 — acceptable for vintage sticker stock but difficult to judge precisely at this angle. Corners show visible rounding at all four, most notably bottom-left and top-right, consistent with a VG-EX to EX range. Surface shows moderate gloss loss and what appears to be light toning or soiling across the sticker face; no obvious creases are visible from this photo but the image resolution and angle cannot rule them out. Edges appear reasonably clean with no tearing visible; the two-asterisk copyright line is consistent with O-Pee-Chee printing but front-only assessment cannot confirm this — noted for buyer awareness as it could affect set registry value.

Centering estimate: left/right borders appear roughly 55/45 to 60/40 — acceptable for the set; top/bottom appears slightly tighter on top, perhaps 55/45 — no severe centering concern visible. The red die-cut border shows some light chipping/wear consistent with the set's typical handling, but the COMC watermark obscures the lower border and corners sufficiently to prevent a precise assessment. Corner detail is difficult to read at this resolution; the upper corners appear to show light rounding consistent with EX to NM range, but cannot be confirmed. Surface gloss appears moderate with no obvious creases visible, though the image compression and watermark make surface evaluation unreliable. The wide range (4–7) reflects genuine uncertainty due to the watermark obstruction and image quality; a collector should seek a clean, unwatermarked scan before committing to a grade estimate.

Centering estimate: left/right borders appear roughly 60/40 favoring left, top/bottom approximately 55/45 — acceptable for the sticker series but slightly off. The red die-cut border shows visible chipping and wear along multiple edges, particularly the right side. Corners appear rounded at all four tips with the most notable wear at top-left and bottom-right, consistent with a VG-EX to EX range. Surface shows moderate gloss loss and some general aging/toning typical of 46-year-old stickers; no creases are definitively visible in this resolution but cannot be ruled out on the back. Image quality and resolution prevent confident corner and surface assessment, warranting a widened range.

Centering estimate: left/right borders appear approximately 70/30 favoring left, top/bottom roughly 60/40 — off but not severely miscut. The red border on the right side is noticeably thinner than the left, pulling centering toward the EX-MT or lower range. Corner assessment is limited at this resolution but all four corners appear to show some rounding/softening, consistent with moderate handling wear — no razor sharpness visible on any corner. Surface gloss appears somewhat diminished but no obvious creases are visible from this image. The sticker stock and die-cut edges look intact without tears or paper loss, but the CoMC watermark obscures part of the image, limiting full surface inspection.
