1977 Topps UK Star Wars #40A

Centering: left/right borders appear approximately 65/35 favoring left, top/bottom approximately 60/40 favoring top — within NM-MT territory for centering alone but needs corner and surface confirmation. Red border shows no obvious chipping along visible edges, which is a positive sign for this notoriously chip-prone series. Corners appear reasonably clean with only mild rounding visible at the lower-right corner; upper corners look sharper but micro-detail is limited at this resolution. Surface gloss appears intact with no obvious creases visible, though the seller's title notation '2vh' likely references two vertical or horizontal creases not fully discernible in this image — if creases are present that notation should be taken seriously and would drop the grade toward 4-5 range. Back condition unknown; range widened accordingly.
