    I would be very surprised if Baker had anything to do with this cover

    Agree 100% with you @steveinthecity. Completely detached centerfold generally tops out at 7.0 for a Cgc graded book
  12. Funnybooks
    CgC will grade a book otherwise flawless as high as 8.5/9.0 Your book would still retain 6.5/7.0 if the centerfold is detached at one staple only...not higher based on your question

    anyone else notice something different? For the record, I would agree that if the book was otherwise mint, the defect alone should drop the book to 9.6 on a good day and 9.4 in a worse case scenario

    lower staple...nothing egregious...in both these quick examples...seems more pronounced when the staple(s) is attached to the black on the front wrap as opposed to the orange of the back wrap or perfectly flush
  15. Funnybooks
    Both staples
  16. Funnybooks
    Lower staples in each of these examples: This is a copy of a copy without the defect:

    I'll search for some modern book examples...I think ASM 361 is notorious for this...

    I don't know how the sausage is made at CgC but there are plenty of slabbed 9.8 books with that exact staple "tear/defect" so I believe CgC grades fairly loosely in this instance.
