Yes, I was being facetious

I paid $65.00 CAD which is like $10.00 USD

So I was strolling through the local antique shop in my hometown of Calgary, Alberta and stumbled across this absolutely gorgeous copy of The Beatles from 1964. The book is a Dell Giant square bound book with the obvious tell tale spine and staple protrusions. What do you think? And you won't believe what I paid for it! For some unknown reason the bottom four picutres are out of rotation, sorry

Improved grades submitted!!

I promise to do better this roumd!!

Guess I'm in the mix!! Headline #6 = 4.5 5.0 1 Weird Mysteries #11 = 3.5 3.5 0 Detective #268 = 5.0 4.0 2 Action #243 = 8.0 8.5 1 Fantastic Four #86 = 8.5 9.0 1 1 Bullseye and 5 Points

7.5 IMHO Nice looking book with pressable defects but I don't think I would bother since the missing chunks are still going to hold you back. Thanks for posting!

Grades have been submitted.....

9.4 IMHO with a little room to improve. It would be better to use a coloured back ground so that the white borders/eedges of the book are more visible. The printers crease will not effect the grade now or up to 9.8. Thanks for posting!

7.5 IMHO The overall structure of the book presents quite well. It would in my opinion benefit from a clean and press. Thanks for posting!

2.5 IMHO Great book! Thanks for posting!

8.0 IMHO Beautful presenting DD! Thanks for posting!

6.0 IMHO The whole of the book presents well however the flaws are obvious. Still a great book! Thanks for posting!

9.2 IMHO As it sits right now. Slight reverse spine curl, soft corners (I think it's just curled under LRFC/LLBC), some minor bends and dents. A clean and press will go a long way with this book to ensure you maximize the potential when getting it graded. Provided that bottom corner is just curled under and not blunted, I see a potential for a 9.8 in it's future! Thanks for posting!

8.0 IMHO The spine has some serious CB soine tics and the edges are a little rough in areas. Thanks for posting!
