Refill

Well, Feel I got lucky on this one. 

Howdy, 

The back of this book could get a good cleaning, Some noticeable foxing on this book. The back page has a rather large press stress. First page has a what I believe is an ink drop from printing. 

What say you?

Thanks as always. 

Howdy,

Couple spine tick on this book with light spin wear. No real defects on the book that I can tell. Love these early FF books! 

What say you?

Thanks again, as always.

5.5 with no discount for signature (which def looks legit)

Maybe touches 6.0 with right clean / press

I struggle a little at these mid-grades

Thanks, Yeah a shame the vertical crease down the right side of the book..  

Howdy,

Some guy named Roy Thomas wrote his name on the cover of the book, jk. Not sure if it makes Spidey sense to get an autograph book like this graded?

Rather large color break crease on the right side of the cover. Some press crease on the back lower right back cover. Book could definitely use a good cleaning. 

Thanks as always.

Howdy,

Bottom right cover dog ear,  some color break on the top mid cover. Light spine creasing. 

What say you?

Thanks again.

4.0 seems about right. For the amount of extra ink on there, it's kind of impressive that it blends well with the overall color scheme. 

 

That kid had talent.

Howdy,

Ever see a comic mag super-hero take his troubles to a psychiatrist? You will now!! 

Spine has some issues but the rest of the book is rather clean. 

Thoughts?

Thanks again.

That seems about right. It’s a great looking 4.0, though!

It's got some comfort to it...

Howdy, 

Got to love the "additional" art work on this book. 

What ya think?

Thanks again. 

Howdy,

There is a small 1/4 drop of schmutz on the back cover. A 1/16 inch tear on the back cover. Obvious wear on top of cover. 

5.5 ?

Thank you!

Howdy Earthlings,

Never too sure about grading these square bound books spines. Also has a 1' long defect on the back up cover, not sure what it is ( Some ones morning coffee?), but the gloss has been effected on the back cover but not on the last page of the book. Sure this book could use a good clean.

Thanks as always. 

Howdy, Looking at the color of this book not sure how she will grade. There is a small 1/16 inch chip on the back cover . Couple ticks on the spine but might get pressed out?

Thanks as always.

7.5 WHITE Pages

You have been putting up some nice comics!

Thanks! 

The upper right hand corner of this book has two 1' slight color break caused by a slight crease. A bit of foxing on the back cover. I think that the pressure crease under VISION was from the press?

What ya think?

Thanks again!

Looks like this book got left in a stack for a decade or so... I'm guessing light exposer got the best of the affected area.  Small 1/8th inch ding on the upper right cover.  

What say you?

Thanks as always. 

Slight liner marks on top back cover seems like cleaning / press would help. 

What ya thinking?

Thanks again.

I’m at a 6.5 gorgeous book WTTB (welcome to the boards!!)

Thanks

Howdy, There is a small 1/8 inch tear on the bottom right hand side of the book.

The back upper left corner is bent from a drop I would guess. No color break and I have not tried to press the book. 

What say you?

Thanks again. 

Howdy, Looking at a pretty sharp book with some tanning / crow.... off centered staples. 

Thanks again. 

Howdy, I bought this book at a convention in the early 90's. There was a "4" written on the cover with a Wax Pencil and my teenaged self thought it was a good Idea to take it home and "try" to erase it with a soft art eraser. 

There is also a small "3" written on the back cover. 

What ya thinking?

Thanks again

5.5 crow

thanks man, do you mind checking out that X-men 1 I posted yesterday, new here, I think it got buried as I was waiting for approval to post. Thanks again. 

Howdy, got a 1/2 inch dog ear color break on lower right hand corner. They missed the staple mark on this bad boy causing a vertical stress color break up the right side of the book although faint but definitely there. Written distribution date written on top left . On the back cover there is a 1/16 inch rip accompanied by a 1/2 in crease. 

( On the back scan I did not realize that the tear was bent behind the cover, I unfolded it in the detail, no missing piece just tucked behind.)

What ya think?

thanks again. 

Howdy, looking at some small staple stress less than 1/16 inch around both staples. On Black Panthers left foot there is some printing stress, not sure how to grade that. There is a large dark line on back cover but I believe that it is caused by dirt on the book and there is no crease to be seen.

Bottom right corner has a 1/4 inch dog ear color break. 

Thanks again for the time.
