1977 Wonder Bread Star Wars #6 Grand Moff Tarkin — Raw

Centering estimate: left/right borders appear roughly 60/40 favoring left, top/bottom approximately 55/45 — not ideal but within tolerable range for the set. The black borders on Wonder Bread cards show wear prominently; visible lightening/scuffing is apparent along multiple edges, particularly the bottom border area. Corner detail is obscured by the sleeve and photo darkness, but the visible corners suggest moderate rounding consistent with a VG-EX (4) to EX (5) card at best. Surface appears to have some gloss loss and possible light handling marks but no obvious hard creases are visible. Photo lighting and sleeve make it impossible to confirm corner sharpness or rule out faint creases, warranting a widened range; the dark/black borders of Wonder Bread cards hide edge chipping that would be more visible on Topps blue-bordered cards, so actual condition may be slightly worse than it appears.

Centering estimate: left border appears roughly 10-12% wider than right border (~55/45 L/R acceptable), top border slightly heavier than bottom (~55/45 T/B), so centering is not a major concern. The black border along the left and bottom edges shows visible wear and scuffing — the left edge in particular displays notable surface abrasion and what appears to be corner rounding on at least the lower-left corner. The card surface shows general gloss loss and what may be light handling creases or surface dimpling, though the COMC watermark and image quality make it difficult to confirm crease depth with certainty. No miscut is evident. Given the visible corner/edge wear and surface degradation, this card grades most likely in the VG (3) range, with VG-EX (4) possible if wear is shallower than it appears, and GOOD (2) possible if hidden creases exist on the back.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (approximately 70/30 left-to-right), top and bottom borders appear roughly 60/40 — off-center but not miscut. The black border on the left edge shows visible wear and scuffing, and there is noticeable surface soiling or grime particularly in the upper-left quadrant. Corners show moderate rounding on at least two visible corners (upper-left most evident), consistent with a VG-EX to EX range. Gloss appears partially intact but dulled by surface wear and possible handling marks. The ComC watermark and sleeve obscure fine surface detail, widening the range; a back inspection would be needed to rule out creases or staining that could push this lower.

Centering estimate: the black left border appears slightly wider than the right, and the top border appears marginally wider than the bottom — rough estimate L/R ~55/45, T/B ~55/45, so centering is acceptable but hard to confirm precisely due to image angle and COMC watermark. The black borders on Wonder Bread cards are notoriously thin and hard to read; no obvious chipping or fraying is visible along the edges from this scan. Corner detail is obscured by the dark border and compressed image resolution — no gross rounding or creasing is apparent but fine-tip condition cannot be confirmed. Surface gloss appears moderate with no obvious creases visible, but the COMC watermark and overall scan quality prevent confident assessment of print defects or surface wear. The range is wide because corner and edge detail are genuinely hidden; a collector should seek a higher-resolution scan or in-hand inspection before bidding.

Centering: the black border appears narrower on the left (~35%) vs right (~65%) where the logo panel sits — this is by design for Wonder Bread cards with the vertical logo strip, so true centering judgment must focus on top/bottom; top border looks slightly tighter than bottom, estimating roughly 55/45 T/B, within acceptable range. The COMC watermark and dark exposure significantly obscure corner and surface detail, making precise grading difficult. Corners appear to show some wear but cannot be confirmed as sharp or rounded due to image quality. No creases or staining are visible from this scan, and the black border shows no obvious chipping or fraying along edges, suggesting at least EX condition. The wide range reflects genuine uncertainty from the dark, watermarked image — a proper scan or in-hand inspection is required before submission.

Centering estimate: left black border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border appears moderately wider than bottom (~60/40 T/B) — centering is passable but not tight. The COMC watermark obscures the lower-center surface, making it impossible to assess print defects, scratches, or crease lines in that zone. Corners are not individually sharp in this image resolution — there appears to be some rounding at least on the visible lower corners suggesting light to moderate wear consistent with EX to EX-MT range. The black border shows no obvious chipping or major edge wear visible at this resolution, but edge detail is soft. No creases are confirmed visible, but the watermark obstruction and photo resolution prevent ruling them out; the range is widened accordingly to reflect genuine uncertainty about the surface condition beneath the watermark.

Centering estimate: the black left border appears narrower than the right (where the logo strip sits), top border appears slightly wider than bottom — rough left/right reads approximately 60/40 and top/bottom approximately 55/45, centering acceptable for a mid-grade. The COMC watermark and overall image darkness make corner assessment difficult; corners appear to have at least some rounding or wear but no obvious severe damage is visible. Edges appear intact with no obvious tears or chips discernible at this resolution. Surface gloss loss is possible given the dark, low-contrast rendering of the photo, but creases cannot be confirmed or ruled out. The wide range reflects the significant information hidden by the dark scan and the watermark overlay — a scan of the reverse and corner macro shots would be needed to tighten this estimate meaningfully.

Centering: left/right borders appear approximately 70/30 favoring left, top/bottom roughly 60/40 — centering is off but not catastrophically miscut. The black border shows significant wear and chipping along the top and left edges, with notable surface scuffing and abrasion visible across the upper card face; the upper-left corner region appears damaged or darkened, possibly a crease or surface fold. Corners visible at lower-left and lower-right show clear rounding consistent with VG or lower. Gloss is heavily diminished across much of the surface. The CoMC watermark partially obscures surface detail, limiting full assessment of the lower half, but the overall wear pattern — chipped black borders, rounded corners, and surface abrasion — places this firmly in the VG (3) range with a floor of GOOD (2) if the dark upper-left area proves to be a crease or paper damage.

Centering: the black border appears noticeably thinner on the left (~30%) vs. right (~70%) and slightly thinner on top vs. bottom, roughly 70/30 left-right — a meaningful centering defect but not miscut territory. All four corners show visible rounding and wear, consistent with handling over decades; upper-left corner appears the most dinged. The black border along the top-left shows what appears to be edge wear and possible chipping. Surface has scattered scuffs and loss of gloss visible even at this resolution, with some cloudiness in the image area. No overt creases are confirmed from this angle, but the card's overall wear pattern (rounded corners, border wear, gloss loss) places it solidly in the VG to VG-EX range; a hidden crease on the back or surface could push it to a 2.

Centering estimate: left border is significantly narrower than right (~70/30 left-right), top border slightly tighter than bottom (~55/45 top-bottom), so horizontal centering is a notable concern. All four corners show visible rounding and wear — no sharp corners are present anywhere, with the top-left and bottom-left appearing the most worn. The edges show general roughness consistent with handling wear. Surface gloss is largely gone with visible scuffing across the face of the card; the black background area makes surface marks harder to read definitively through the sleeve. No creases are clearly visible but cannot be ruled out given the sleeve obstruction and overall wear level — the total presentation reads VG (3) with downside risk to GOOD (2) if a crease is present on the back or hidden by the sleeve.

Centering: the black border appears notably thinner on the left (~15%) versus right (~25%) and the top border is quite thin versus a slightly wider bottom strip — estimated left/right roughly 65/35 and top/bottom roughly 60/40, both borderline but not catastrophic. More concerning is the upper-left corner, which shows visible rounding and wear consistent with a VG-range card; the upper-right corner also appears soft. The card surface shows heavy scuffing and wear across the dark border, particularly along the top edge where the black shows significant roughening and possible paper compression. Gloss loss is apparent across the face area of the image. No crease is clearly visible in this single frontal photo but the overall surface degradation and corner wear point firmly to a VG (3) grade, with VG-EX (4) possible only if corners prove less worn under close inspection and no crease is present on the reverse.

Centering estimate: left/right borders appear roughly 60/40 favoring left, top/bottom appears approximately 55/45 — centering is somewhat off but not severely so, likely in the 75/25 range overall. The four corners show visible rounding, most notably at the upper-left and lower-left, consistent with VG to VG-EX wear. Surface gloss appears moderately reduced with some light scuffing visible across the face image, though no obvious hard creases are detectable from this single front photo. The seller's self-described 'VG' grade aligns reasonably with what is visible — corner rounding and gloss loss point to a PSA 3-4 range, with a 5 possible only if the back and corners are cleaner than they appear; a crease on the back (not visible here) would push toward 3.

Centering: left/right borders appear roughly 60/40 favoring left, top/bottom approximately 55/45 — not problematic for centering alone. Corners: all four corners show visible rounding and wear, consistent with heavy handling; no corner is sharp. Edges: the black border shows scuffing and wear marks, particularly noticeable along the top edge and upper-left area where surface abrasion is evident. Surface: significant gloss loss across much of the card face, with visible scratching or scuffing in the upper-left quadrant and general dulling throughout; no crease is definitively confirmed from this image but surface wear is substantial. Wonder Bread cards are notoriously fragile on black borders, and this example shows the expected heavy wear; a PSA 3 (VG) is the most likely outcome given rounded corners and gloss loss, with 4 possible only if surface damage is lighter than it appears.

Centering: The Wonder Bread cards are borderless by design so traditional border ratio measurement is not applicable; the image fill appears reasonably centered left/right (~55/45) and top/bottom (~55/45) with no miscut evident. Surface: Visible scratching/scuffing across the upper-center of the card face — two or three distinct white scratch marks are clearly present under the lighting, indicating meaningful surface wear and gloss loss. Corners: At the photo resolution the corners appear lightly to moderately rounded, consistent with a VG-EX to EX range; no sharp corners are visible. Edges: The bottom-left corner shows slight wear, and overall edge condition appears average for the age of the card; no creases are confirmed but the surface scratches alone will suppress the grade — a PSA 4 (VG-EX) is the most likely outcome, with a 3 possible if corners are worse than they appear and a 5 possible only if the scratches are superficial gloss rubs rather than paper-fiber damage.
