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

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 70/30 L/R skew toward the right side where the STAR WARS logo panel dominates — this is a design feature of the set, not pure miscut), top/bottom appears approximately 60/40 favoring top; the yellow caption bar at bottom is part of the design. Corners show light-to-moderate rounding visible at all four corners, most pronounced at bottom-left and top-left, consistent with handling wear. Surface gloss appears partially intact but shows some cloudiness/light scratching under the sleeve; no obvious creases are visible in this image. Edges appear reasonably clean with no major chips or tears, but the Wonder Bread set is known for rough-cut borders which should not be over-penalized. Cannot fully assess the back for staining or creases from this single front photo, which widens the range.

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 border is narrow (~15% of total horizontal space) versus right border (~25%), giving roughly 65/35 L/R; top border appears slightly wider than bottom, approximately 55/45 T/B — centering is off but not severely so. Corners appear to have light rounding visible particularly on the bottom-left and top-left, consistent with EX to VG-EX range. The black border shows no obvious chipping or major edge wear from this distance, but the card stock of Wonder Bread issues is thinner and softer than Topps, making corner wear accelerate quickly. Surface appears to retain reasonable gloss with no creases visible, but the photo angle and resolution make it impossible to confirm micro-surface wear or print defects definitively. The range is widened slightly downward given the inherent fragility of Wonder Bread issue stock and the inability to inspect corners closely.

Centering estimate: left/right borders appear approximately 60/40 favoring left, top/bottom approximately 55/45 favoring top — acceptable for NM-MT range but not perfect. The yellow bottom banner and right blue Star Wars banner appear intact with no visible chipping or border wear. Corners appear reasonably sharp from this distance but slight softening is possible on one or two corners — hard to confirm at this resolution, which is why the range is wide. Surface gloss appears present with no obvious creases, staining, or print defects visible; the image is clean and well-centered enough to support a NM grade. Back is not shown, which limits confidence; Wonder Bread cards are known for print quality variance and back condition issues from wax paper contact, so the back could pull the grade down.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly narrower than right (~60/40 L/R), top border appears slightly narrower than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — within NM-MT range horizontally, acceptable vertically. Corners appear reasonably sharp from this distance but the photo does not permit tight corner inspection; no obvious rounding or peeling is visible. The yellow left banner and blue bottom banner show no obvious chipping or fraying along edges. Surface gloss appears intact with no visible creases or staining; print quality looks clean for the set. The Wonder Bread set is known for being distributed in bread packages and is frequently found with soft corners or surface wear from handling — the back (not visible) often shows adhesion or moisture damage, which could meaningfully lower the grade; this uncertainty drives the widened range.
