1977 Wonder Bread Star Wars #8 Artoo-Detoo — Raw

Centering: left/right borders appear approximately 70/30 favoring left, top/bottom roughly 60/40 favoring top — off-center but not severely so, likely within 80/20 range. The black border on the right side (where the logo runs) appears noticeably thinner than the left, consistent with this set's known centering variance. Corners: all four corners show some degree of rounding/softening visible even at this resolution — no sharp points evident, suggesting wear consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Surface: overall gloss appears present but somewhat muted; no creases are visible from this angle though the image resolution limits a definitive call. Edges: appear reasonably clean with no obvious chips or tears; the black border helps mask edge wear but this set is prone to scuffing.

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably narrower than right (~70/30 L/R), top border somewhat tighter than bottom (~60/40 T/B) - centering is off but not catastrophically so for this set. Corners: the bottom-left corner shows visible rounding/softening visible even through the sleeve; top-right and bottom-right corners also appear to have moderate wear, consistent with a VG-EX card at best. Surface: the card image shows some general dullness and loss of original gloss, consistent with age and handling; no obvious hard creases are visible in this photo but the sleeve glare partially obscures the lower-left quadrant. Edges: appear reasonably clean with no obvious major nicks visible. Wonder Bread cards are known for rough cuts and are typically found in lower grades; the absence of a visible hard crease pushes this toward 4 rather than 3, but corner wear and centering keep it from reaching 5.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (the STAR WARS logo strip eats the right side), top border slightly tighter than bottom — left/right reads roughly 60/40 favoring right logo side, top/bottom approximately 55/45; centering is passable for the set but not ideal. Surface shows significant wear with visible scuffing and loss of gloss across the image area, giving a dull, matte appearance consistent with heavy handling. Corners are the primary concern — all four appear visibly rounded with the bottom corners partially obscured by the display stand, but what is visible suggests rounding consistent with a VG (3) grade; no sharp corners are evident. No creases are definitively confirmed from this angle but the overall surface texture and gloss loss suggest the card has seen considerable use, placing it in the VG to VG-EX range; the stand obstruction prevents a confident upper-bound call.

Centering estimate: left border ~10%, right border ~20%, top border ~8%, bottom border ~15% — moderate off-center but centering is the least of the card's problems. All four corners show heavy rounding and wear, consistent with years of unprotected handling. The black borders — which are notoriously unforgiving on Wonder Bread cards — show significant chipping and wear along all four edges, with the top-left and bottom-left corners especially degraded. Surface exhibits gloss loss across most of the card face, and there appears to be a light crease or handling mark running through the center of the image area. The seller's 'PR' self-disclosure is well-supported by the photo; this card grades PR 1 at best and possibly qualifies only for an Authentic designation if additional damage (hidden creases, staining) is confirmed on the reverse.

Centering estimate: left black border appears noticeably wider than right (~65/35 L-R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T-B), so left-right centering is a meaningful concern. The CoMW watermark obscures the card center, making surface assessment difficult. Corner examination shows what appears to be moderate rounding on at least the visible lower corners, consistent with a VG-EX to EX range. The black border along the bottom shows some chipping or wear. No creases are clearly visible, but the image resolution and watermark obstruction prevent confident ruling them out. Given apparent corner rounding and border wear, a PSA 4 (VG-EX) is the most likely grade, with EX (5) possible if corners are sharper than they appear and the surface is clean.

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably wider than right (~65/35 L/R); top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) - centering is off but not catastrophically so. All four corners show visible rounding and wear, consistent with a VG-EX to EX range; at least two corners appear moderately soft. The black border edges show chipping/wear typical of this set but more pronounced than a lightly handled copy. Surface gloss appears partially intact but dulled, and there is notable edge/corner wear consistent with the seller's 'EX' claim though I'd lean slightly below that at VG-EX. No obvious creases are detectable from this single front photo, but the image angle and lighting prevent confident assessment of surface creases or back condition, warranting a widened range.

Centering estimate: left border appears notably wider than right (~65/35 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B), so left-right centering is the primary concern but not miscut territory. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners (bottom-left and bottom-right appear softened), consistent with VG-EX to EX range. The black border — which reveals wear readily — shows some lightening/chipping along the left and bottom edges. Surface appears to have moderate gloss remaining with no obvious creases visible from this scan, but the COMC watermark obscures center detail. The card lands most naturally at a 4 (VG-EX): corner rounding present, edge wear on black border, centering off but within bounds, no visible creases.

Centering estimate: left black border appears roughly 3-4mm, right border (occupied by logo strip) appears similar; top border roughly 4mm, bottom banner slightly wider — left/right appears near 55/45 and top/bottom near 55/45, so centering is acceptable and not a major grade driver here. Corners are difficult to read precisely through the sleeve but appear to show light rounding at minimum on two or three corners, consistent with EX to VG-EX range. The photo surface shows some apparent mottling or minor print texture typical of Wonder Bread stock, and there is a slight loss of crispness that may indicate light gloss wear rather than a crease, though a crease cannot be ruled out. No writing, tearing, or major staining is visible; the sleeve prevents confident corner and edge assessment, warranting a widened range of 4–6.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border noticeably thinner than bottom (~60/40 T/B) — centering is acceptable but not tight. The upper-left and upper-right corners show visible rounding/wear, consistent with handling; lower corners appear slightly better but still show softening. The black border along the top-left shows some wear/chipping. Surface appears to retain moderate gloss with no obvious creases visible from this angle, though the card has a slightly worn, handled appearance typical of this Wonder Bread issue (which was a food insert and inherently lower grade). No staining or writing visible. Back not shown, limiting assessment. The condition suggests a VG-EX to EX range (PSA 4-5), with corner wear being the primary grade limiter; a hidden crease or back damage could push this to PSA 3.

Centering estimate: left/right borders appear approximately 70/30 favoring left, top/bottom approximately 60/40 — off-center but not severely miscut. The black border shows significant chipping and wear along all four edges, most notably the top-left corner which appears heavily worn and possibly creased or bent. The bottom-left corner also shows visible rounding and border loss. The upper-right area of the black border shows similar chipping. Surface gloss appears largely intact in the image center, but the card shows overall handling wear consistent with a VG grade. A possible crease or fold stress line may be present near the top-left corner, which if confirmed would anchor the grade at 3 or below; without a back scan and corner macro, the range cannot be tightened further.

Centering estimate: left border ~10%, right border (logo band) is by design wider, top border roughly 8%, bottom banner is design-standard — the card appears reasonably centered within the printed design but the black borders show significant chipping and edge wear on all four sides. All four corners are visibly rounded with clear wear, consistent with heavy handling. The surface shows obvious scuffing and gloss loss across much of the card face, and there are what appear to be light diagonal stress lines or creases in the lower-left quadrant visible at this resolution, which is consistent with the seller's 'GD' self-disclosure. The black border chipping is heavy on the upper-left and lower edges. Overall condition aligns with a PSA 2 GOOD, with a slim chance of 3 VG if the apparent crease lines are surface scuffs rather than true creases — the single front photo cannot fully resolve this.

Centering: left/right borders appear roughly 60/40 favoring left, top/bottom roughly 55/45 — not a centering killer on its own. However, the black border shows heavy chipping and wear on all four edges, most severely at the top-left and top-right corners, which are visibly rounded and frayed. The bottom corners show similar rounding. Surface exhibits significant gloss loss across the face with a faded, washed-out appearance consistent with heavy handling. The seller's title flags damage ('d2' likely denoting damage), and the overall wear pattern — rounded corners, edge chipping throughout the black border, gloss loss — places this squarely in the Good (2) to Very Good (3) range; the severity of corner rounding and border wear leans toward the lower end.

Centering estimate: left/right borders appear approximately 60/40 favoring the left, top/bottom approximately 55/45 favoring the top — acceptable for this set but not tight. The yellow bottom border and blue right-side 'Star Wars' band show no obvious miscut. Corners: at this resolution the corners appear to have mild-to-moderate rounding, consistent with a PSA 5 EX range; no sharp razor points are visible, and at least 2-3 corners show light wear. Surface shows the typical Wonder Bread print grain/dot pattern inherent to the set; no obvious creases are visible in this photo, but the image angle and card-stand shadow limit a definitive crease assessment. Gloss appears partially intact but somewhat muted, consistent with light handling wear; back condition and corner closeups are unavailable, widening the range.

Centering estimate: left border appears notably narrower than right (~70/30 left-right favor); top border appears slightly narrower than bottom (~55/45 top-bottom) — centering is off but not catastrophically so on the vertical axis. The yellow bottom border and blue right Star Wars banner appear intact with no obvious chipping. Corners are difficult to assess precisely due to photo angle and resolution, but the two visible corners (bottom-left, bottom-right) show what appears to be mild-to-moderate rounding consistent with an EX range card. Surface gloss appears present but the image quality and angle make it impossible to confirm the degree of gloss loss, print defects, or edge wear with confidence. No creases are visible from this photo, but the photo does not allow close corner inspection — range is widened accordingly.
