    I see a small stain back cover by wolverines foot, finger prints, spine tic here and there… 8.5 before a press imo.
  2. Bmattioli86
    3.5 as long as there is nothing missing
  3. Bmattioli86
    I’m in for some shenanigans
  4. Bmattioli86
    In agreement with @scburdet although it’s possible that it could get a 1.0… it’s unlikely but would be very interested to see!

    I didn’t see anyone mention foxing, but my eyes are seeing it. So I would imagine with the imperfections mentioned you are looking at the 7.0 range (f/vf) this is easily my favorite FF book of the whole run.

    I’ve seen worse copies.. actually I own two of them. And this book is better than both even before a c/p. With that said, I’ll take a shot at 4.0 range with c/p.

    Thank you. I will update this thread as the process moves along. I’m in the midst of sending my books to my presser (just waiting on one) and should have them back by early summer. he is pretty talented and well known. He does Mike from lunch money comics on YouTube’s books.

    Could you update the pics to show back, centerfold and splash page? looks high grade from the front
  9. Bmattioli86
    9.2 as stands, 9.4 after a solid c/p love this book… just got my first newsie today
  10. Bmattioli86
    A press would help…but given the age of the book I’ll take a stab at 3.5 as it stands
  11. Bmattioli86
    110% certain 9.6
  12. Bmattioli86
    Although better pics would definitley help, I don’t see too much wrong with this book. Definitley near mint territory. So I’ll take a stab at it for 9.6 I have a deep love for this issue
  13. Bmattioli86
    3.5 nice book though
  14. Bmattioli86
    7.5
  15. Bmattioli86
    Going with 5.0. Will be super surprised to see this come back 4.0 range
  16. Bmattioli86
    I’ll agree, definitely a shot at 4.5 here
  17. Bmattioli86
    Inside look ok? (Pics of the splash page, centerfold) just seeing the two pics it’s in the 4.0 range imo.
  18. Bmattioli86
    Please update your pics. CGC sees this book often, so it’s incredibly hard to justify a grade with just the front cover
  19. Bmattioli86
    @grendelbo care to share your wisdom? I own this book as well, and my copy looks worse than this one and was amateur graded 6.0
  20. Bmattioli86
    This is a hard book to grade given the all black and more or less a “modern” book, but what I can see I’ll take a stab at it for 8.0 range as is.
  21. Bmattioli86
    They’ve seen so much of this book… don’t be surprised they give you the 9.4 grade imo.
  22. Bmattioli86
    Presentation wise, you can’t even notice the ripped corner
  23. Bmattioli86
    Congrats @grendelbo incredible scoring I wish to get to your level later in my young life
  24. Bmattioli86
    I don’t think the rips will warrant that big of a hit on the grade. The spine looks pretty worn so imo that’s where most of the grade dinging will take place, aside from the other various color breaking issues… I’ll take a shot at 3.0-4.0 range. Great job cleaning also it looks fantastic 👍
  25. Bmattioli86
    Ah, drats.. harsh grade at 1.0… would the staple detachment have anything to do with the grade given even with the big chunk missing? Still looks gorgeous either way!
