I had my best round so far. Still not great though. I setup a range of grades for each book and then took a grade near the top for my choice. I wound up with one bulls eye and 5 points total. If I had chosen the grade at the upper limit of my range for all 5 books I would have had 2 points. My biggest miss was the Aggie Mack #8 book, which I had at 4.5.

I was perplexed by the 'top trimmed' note on my copy of Tales To Astonish #16 as it did not look trimmed. I took several other raw copies of Atlas and Marvel books from the same time period to copare heights and TTA #16 seems to be slightly taller than those books. I then thought what if I capture the image of another graded TTA #16 and use paint to size them so the width is the same. Being careful to not distort the books, but it might have happened, I was able to place them side by side. Then I used a ruler to verify the widths were the same. I had use pixels when sizing the two copies. Sure enough the height on my graded copy is slightly less than the book I compared it to. Is this a valid way to compare books for this? I do not want to deslab mine just to make measuring easier. My copy, on the right, has more space between Thorr's arm and the spine of the book than the other copy. The comparison photo did not appear as large as I had hoped, new photo. The widths are identical but the book from the blue label slab (on the right) is longer.

Sweet. However I would be careful with Moomba and his plans for world domination that close to the electric outlet, you never know what he could accomplish with extra power.

Talking about more books to buy. I have added Flash Gordon #6 to my list, as the cover is exceptional and was drawn by Reed Crandall.
