Corners
8/10The upper-left yellow corner shows slight tip softening and a small irregular loss of yellow coating against the pale background.
The upper-right corner retains a defined point, with the golden-yellow border continuing cleanly into the apex.
The lower-left yellow corner remains mostly pointed but has mild edge softness along the tip area.
The lower-right corner maintains a clean pointed profile with the yellow frame continuous around the tip.
Analysis: Front corners show minor close-inspection softening at the upper-left and lower-left tips, while the right-side corners remain defined. The two affected corners place the overall front corner condition at 8. This face shows 8/10 to match the corners score the three independent evaluations agreed on.
Edges
8/10The top yellow edge is mostly continuous, with a short irregular section near the upper-left corner where the coating appears slightly worn.
The bottom yellow edge is comparatively clean and straight, with no clearly resolved isolated white chip across the visible run.
The left edge beside the green artwork shows mild irregularity near the upper section but remains largely intact along its length.
The right yellow edge presents a smooth, continuous cut from the title area to the lower corner.
Analysis: Front edges are mostly clean but show minor localized roughness along the top-left and upper-left perimeter. No substantial chipping or continuous whitening is visible; the overall front edge condition is 8. This face shows 8/10 to match the edges score the three independent evaluations agreed on.
Surface
10/10No analysis available
Analysis: The green, yellow, red, and black printed areas show no confirmed scratch, dent, stain, or gloss-loss defect at the available image resolution. Surface score is 10 based on the visible evidence.

Corner Close-ups (Back)
Corners
8/10The physical upper-left back corner has a small area of blue coating loss at the tip, exposing a lighter underlying edge.
The upper-right back corner is rounded only minimally and retains the blue printed field around a defined apex.
The lower-left back corner remains structurally intact, with the blue field reaching the point and no obvious lift.
The lower-right back corner shows a faintly softened tip but no bend, fold, or separated material.
Location: back bottom-left corner
A small exposed light fleck is visible along the dark bottom edge near the rounded corner.
View magnified evidence photoAnalysis: Back corners are generally intact, with a small exposed tip at the upper-left and slight softening at the lower-right. No corner lift or bend is visible; the combined back corner condition is 8. This face shows 8/10 to match the corners score the three independent evaluations agreed on.
Edges
8/10The top blue back edge is straight overall, with a few tiny lighter interruptions near the left-side corner region.
The bottom back edge remains sharply outlined by the red inset border and dark blue field, without a continuous worn segment.
The physical left back edge, appearing on the mirrored side of the photograph, is mostly smooth with slight tip-area wear only.
The physical right back edge shows a small amount of light edge exposure near the upper corner, while the remainder stays intact.
Location: back left edge
Multiple small white cardstock flecks are visible along the dark left cut edge.
View magnified evidence photoAnalysis: Back edges show minor localized whitening near the upper corner regions, with the long bottom and left runs remaining clean. The distributed small edge wear places the back edge condition at 8. This face shows 8/10 to match the edges score the three independent evaluations agreed on.
Surface

Location: back upper-left area of the surface
Small light flecks are visible at the exposed dark left edge near the upper-left corner.
