    I hate that this is the memory that has stuck with me all these years, but that guy really should have blown his nose before the photo shoot.

    Grades in.

    8.5-9.0 with the color-breaking spine ticks. I had an Avengers Annual with mysterious tiny yellow blobs of ink along the spine. Nothing that looked or felt like wear, but had no idea if it was from the printing process. Also no clue whether or not CGC would ignore the "defect" when it came time to assign a grade.

    I'll second that as a 5.5 with the accumulation of wear around the edges

    Keno numbers, er, Grades!, in.

    I shall commit no grading crimes until the proper time! Unless, of course, the proper time falls after 8pm. Then I will massacre some 6.0s and submit ahead of the proper time.

    1.8 seems a bit harsh for how the book presents. 3.0 would be great but who knows what a regrade could bring?
  18. FSQIV
    Going 1.0 since the Guide says up to 1/4 of the cover can be missing and your interior looks decent, relatively speaking. I wonder if CGC would refuse to encapsulate it, given its fragility.

    What? Something else to take my attention away from doing my taxes right now? I'm there, dude. OK, time to get back to cleaning out the cracks between every floor board in the house, then it's on to taxes for sure!

    Glorious...er, ah, Glamorous Romances is a 10.0 in my book.......hubba hubba! Looking forward to the next contest with the opportunity to once again put my mediocre grading skills on full display!

    Great to know, and thanks for the input.

    I appreciate your review and thoughts on a grade. Paying special attention at mid-spine and lower-spine, I don't know if this is wear or an ink printing error. For what it's worth, it doesn't feel like physical wear. Also a quirk that there are purple printer blocks throughout the interior pages of the book...maybe that's typical with this issue? Thank you.
  27. FSQIV
    Grades in and good luck to those still in contention!
