1977 Wonder Bread Star Wars #16 TIE - Vader's Ship — TAG (grade unconfirmed)

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (~60/40 L/R), top and bottom borders appear roughly 55/45 T/B - centering is passable but not the primary concern here. The seller self-discloses writing and a crease, both of which are visible under inspection - writing is a PSA-qualifier that typically results in a grade of 1 (Authentic or PR-FR numeric) as it constitutes an intentional alteration/defacement; a visible crease alone would put this in the VG (3) range. The left edge shows significant surface wear and what appears to be ink or dirt staining. Corners show rounding consistent with heavy handling. The combination of confirmed writing and a crease caps this firmly at PSA 1, with PSA 2 as an outside possibility only if the writing is extremely minor and the crease shallow - unlikely given seller disclosure and visible surface condition.

Card is in a hard case (not a PSA/BGS slab), making corner and edge inspection difficult. Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably wider than the right (roughly 70/30 left-to-right), and top/bottom appears relatively balanced at approximately 55/45; centering is off but not catastrophically so. Surface shows visible scratching, scuffing, or print wear across the dark field of the card — these marks are concerning and appear to be on the card itself rather than solely the case. The yellow side-label strip and Star Wars logo at bottom appear intact but the overall surface condition looks worn. Corners cannot be cleanly assessed through the case glare, but the card's general presentation suggests moderate to heavy use consistent with a VG to EX range at best; the surface defects visible are the primary grade driver and could push this as low as a 2. Wonder Bread cards were food-issue premiums and are generally condition-sensitive; this example shows the wear typical of the set but more pronounced than average.

Centering estimate: left/right borders appear roughly 55/45 to 60/40 favoring left, and top/bottom appears approximately 60/40 favoring top — centering is acceptable but not tight. Corners show visible rounding and light wear on at least two corners visible at this resolution, particularly the lower-left and upper-right. Surface shows scattered print speckling (print snow) and light scratches/scuffs consistent with the black border stock of Wonder Bread cards, plus some gloss loss in the image area. Edges appear reasonably clean with no obvious tears or significant nicks, but the black border makes edge chipping harder to evaluate definitively. No creases are visible from this angle, though the back cannot be assessed. The card earns a provisional EX (5) estimate, with range spanning VG-EX (4) to EX-MT (6) depending on corner and surface conditions under closer inspection.
