Condition Report:
This difficult black-bordered card shows honest vintage wear. The corners show moderate softening and mild rounding from handling over the years. The problematic black borders exhibit typical chipping along the edges, revealing the lighter cardboard underneath, which is standard for this condition class. The centering shows a slight shift toward the top-left corner but displays beautifully in a sleeve. The surface remains vibrant and glossy with bold colors, although it shows minimal faint surface lines upon close inspection under bright lighting. The reverse features a clean, unmarked surface with bright graphics.
