  1. 5.0/5.5. I see no reason to disagree with a higher 5.5 pick.
  2. echo the issue of photo quality. 7.0 feels right to me too.
  3. absolute ceiling is a 3.0 probably. More like a 2.0/2.5. I think the latter
  4. definitely press this, but I'm not convinced it comes out. Around 7.0 now
  5. If you believe CGC follows its own guide, this is a 4.0. Lower limit for subscription crease is 4.5. Foxing is 4.0. The other tiny defects wouldn't be penalized further.
  6. please see pinned thread for PGM posting guidelines
  7. Max according to CGC's guide is 7.0. I assume this is a very mild subscription crease
  8. 5.5, I'd go higher except for the splotchiness on the back
  9. 8.0/8.5 a little concerned about that mark by the Wolfman's knee
  10. Going out on a limb here 6.5/7.0. I think this could just pull a 7.0 if pressed and the sub crease becomes less noticeable. I can't see it on the front and 7.0 is the upper limit by the book
  11. 4.5/5.0, I'm leaning lower, but it is a 181 so probably goes against my gut
  12. 5.0/5.5, probably the higher. Concur with the split being the limiting factor
  13. 3.0/3.5. I was closer to 4.0 until the split showed up
  14. 2.5/3.0. One of those cases that looks like it will come back higher than I expect.
  15. tell-tale sign of color touch. I ended up getting a couple unexpected purples b/c there was no bleed through. This looks no worse than one I knowingly had graded, the label says slight C-1. 5.0 is what it looks like
  16. 6.0/6.5. The only thing that might rescue it is being on the reverse, but I can show you books I have with smaller, less noticeable stains on the back at 8.0 & 7.5. They are unforgiving of stains. Does this one reach the inner pages?
