Grade is in! This one was a surprise for me - I was expecting a 2.5

I personally could have seen it as low as a 2.0 - but I'm a bit of a pessimist. I'll definitely post the results when I have them - until then more guesses would be great!

This one is actually on the way back from CGC, but I thought it'd be fun to see what people think it will grade at. I don't actually know yet - like to wait and see when it gets here.

Thanks!

That's actually really interesting, I'll have to try and track down that discussion. Honestly, I'm not sure - it lacks any written credits that I remember and my eye isn't attuned to golden age artists. It's something I'd definitely like to look into when I have a better understanding though.

So I've had this book for a while - pulled it out of a dollar bin ages ago. I always assumed the outside cover was restoration/color touch, but it really is a lazy job and I'm curious if that is indeed what you'd call it. Notice the bleed over on the top of the book. I'd love a grade assessment too.

If memory serves it was 9/18/2018 - It was relatively quick to be put in their system.

If I fall out of love with it you'll get a message - haha.

I'm actually the one who got this one - it's the first time i'd seen it available in over 4 years and I wasn't going to lose it.

Right there with you.

Thanks! I don't collect a ton of romance myself, but the cover on this one grabbed me when I first saw it and I'd been hunting for it since. I don't post often, but I'm always lurking - figured it was a good one to show off.

Been hunting this one for years, finally added it to the collection.

Oh I am, I was expecting a similar wait just based off the TAT when I sent these in.

No problem - glad to be of help.

I was hoping it'd squeeze out an 8.0, but I only had $2 into it so I can't complain. I did nail the page quality though - Off White to White.

For those of you who were curious, it came back a 7.5
