1977 Topps Star Wars Stickers #6 Artoo-Detoo — Raw

Centering on the card stock itself appears roughly 60/40 left-right and 55/45 top-bottom, which is acceptable, but this is a die-cut sticker so orange border uniformity matters more than strict pixel borders. The die-cut orange border shows visible chipping and uneven edge wear consistent with age and handling, and the lower-left corner of the card stock appears rounded/soft. Surface shows moderate gloss loss and there is noticeable toning/soiling on the card edges and lower portion. No hard creases are clearly visible from this photo, but the overall wear pattern — rounded corners, edge chipping on the die-cut, and surface dullness — places this squarely in the VG-EX to EX range; back condition and closer corner inspection could push it either direction.

Centering on the die-cut sticker itself appears reasonably balanced left-to-right (roughly 55/45) and top-to-bottom (roughly 60/40), within acceptable range for this issue. The orange die-cut border shows no obvious chipping or major edge wear visible at this resolution, and the sticker surface appears to retain decent gloss with no obvious creases or staining noted. Corners on the underlying sticker image are difficult to assess precisely due to the die-cut shape, but they appear lightly worn rather than sharp — consistent with a mid-grade EX-MT to NM range. Surface print quality looks clean with no obvious print defects visible, though the image resolution limits assessment of fine corner and edge wear; the range is widened accordingly.

Centering on the card border (not the die-cut sticker shape): left/right appears roughly 55/45 and top/bottom approximately 60/40, which is acceptable for this issue. The die-cut orange border shows no obvious nicks or chips visible at this resolution, though the sticker format makes edge assessment more complex than a standard card. Corners of the outer card appear to have very light wear — no sharp crispness visible but no obvious rounding either, suggesting EX-MT to NM range. Surface gloss appears intact with no visible creases or staining; the orange sticker border shows no significant scuffing. Cannot assess the back or get close-up corner detail from this single photo, so the range is widened accordingly.

Centering estimate: the orange die-cut border appears moderately uneven — left border slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border noticeably tighter than bottom (~60/40 T/B), suggesting acceptable but not tight centering in the EX–EX-MT range. Corners: at this resolution all four corners appear to have some rounding or softening — no razor-sharp points visible, consistent with a grade 4–5 range; no corner is dramatically bent but none looks fresh either. Surface: the sticker image shows visible dirt or grime particularly on the lower body of R2-D2 and some overall surface dulling/loss of gloss; no obvious hard crease is visible but surface wear is apparent. Edges: the die-cut edges look intact without tears or chips, though the photo angle and resolution limit confidence in edge assessment; the two-asterisk copyright line is noted but cannot confirm OPC vs. Topps from the front alone.

Centering estimate: the white outer border appears left-heavy with roughly 70/30 left-to-right and top-to-bottom appears close to 60/40 top-heavy, placing centering in the EX-to-VG-EX range at best. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners (bottom-left and bottom-right are visibly soft), which is consistent with a 4-5 grade. The sticker die-cut orange border appears intact with no obvious tears or paper loss, and surface gloss appears moderate but reduced. No visible creases are apparent from this single photo, though image compression makes it difficult to rule out light surface wear or a hidden crease; the back is unseen, which widens the range downward.
