  1. 4.0/4.5 b/c the crease paralleling the spine
  2. There are a couple of light stress lines on the back. Definitely will keep it out of the higher end NM
  3. There is a slight scuff on that corner, but I think the "fade" you are seeing is the combination of light & the Chips Ahoy ad on the other side of the page. The chocolate stripe lines up nicely with what you describe. Thankfully, the Striped Chips Ahoy are as dead as Earth-2 Batman

    Marvel Team-Up 95

    From the album: Marvel CGCs

  5. I suppose it's OK to own a DC comic if the cover is cool. Interesting, the grade label when it arrive was higher than what was advertised. Will be curious to see which side people land on.
  6. story by my hometown NBC affiliate & I'll wager the station that played the creature feature movies including CFTBL back in the day (I mean, I have a 1/3 chance I've guessed correctly)
  7. around 5.5. Not sure I'd spend the $ grading. CGC 8.0 & 8.5 sold for around $90, so around the cost of grading 3 comics?
  8. White is tough to grade from photos, except for the dirt. 5.5/6.0 but not a lot of confidence if there are "color breaking" defects in the white sections that don't show up well.
  9. 5.5/6.0. I'm more toward the lower end, but maybe since the worst offenders are on the back it has a chance.
  10. Around 6.5 now, 7.0 with C/P. If all the grime came off the back and that indention? in the yellow part of the postcard mostly fixes, maybe a 7.5
  11. I'm assuming the long thing on the back is a crease and the short one at the top is the tear. Looks 5.0/5.5, again leaning lower
  12. 5.0/5.5 leaning toward the lower end of the range.
  13. 5.5/6.0 just to many color breaking defects to go any higher.
  14. Yes https://shop.collectiblesgroup.com/collections/cgc-products/products/the-official-cgc-guide-to-grading-comics-1st-edition-hardcover
  15. Looks to me like the 2" split is on the cusp of becoming a 4" split. Pressing could be risky. I don't see the potential water stain, but staining will be an issue if it's there. The square bounds are easy to split like this. Limit here is around 4.5/5.0 probably
  16. along the bottom of the front cover are most of the problems. Some color breaking stuff around the spine, the man in the blue turban has some white on his cheeks and King Kul looks like he has a fingerprint on him. 7.5, maybe 8.0
  17. I see some color breaking creases, edge wear, ink loss in the blue box below the price. 7.0
