Sending this one (5 of 5) to CGC for grading along with a few other Bronze keys that I will also post here. Trying to figure out the grade and how much they will cost me to slab. Still need to send them for a clean and press. I purchased these off the rack as a teen. Happy to see they survived all these years!

Newbie that I am, I don't know how to reply to individual posts. Oh well. Always be learnin'.

 lower left corner of rear cover, what is that? (Stain/Fold/Piece missing?) It's a fold

I wish my opinion on any comic grade was of any worth. I look at my comics and seem to think they are >9, where clearly CGC doesn't agree. That's especially a problem when I overpay CGC based on a too-high FMV. Hence my request in this forum.

I will check out flying_bison's ASM 50 and am about to post my own ASM 50. What an awesome cover!

Thanks for checking out my comics!

Thanks so much, all y'all for taking time out to weigh in with your evals. Thanks marvelmaniac for your thorough review!

I'll let you all know what CGC has to say.

Looking forward to hearing what you think! I'll post the results of CGC's grade when I get them back. Thanks for checking these out!
