That's the same thing as if I went to George and ask him to sign a random Akira book because he is Asian 

This is by design.  When someone's signature is awesome enough the forum doesn't allow you to ignore it.  

No details.  He just has a bunch of carp shipped to me, and I box it up together and ship it to him.  I also buy books from him and he buys books from me, and sometimes we pool orders.  We are of a like-mind grading-wise.   All I ask out of the deal is Mackintosh's Carmel and undisclosed sexual favors. 

Actually, it is probably way simpler - If you know this little about such things, don't get anything graded, as you'll likely lose your @zz.

Ok, you all asked for it....I warned you!!! 

I did just pick this up from a great big Richard here on the boards:

It fits in my fish-in-the-face collection with these:


 
Honestly though, I keep finding more fish-in-the-face books.

I was going to ask Andrew if he considers this another small biatch,
or
perhaps a buttload,
or
perhaps a sh*tpotful? 
He's definitely got my attention this time out with about four books here.   And yes, I might post that filthy graemlin. 
But instead, I'll post this

I've got nothing.  
Just under 50 years of scatter gunning has worked for me.

Its far more complicated then you seem to think it is.  There is simply no easy answer to your questions. 

Veronica has that I could kill you any moment kinda crazy, and I like that.
I have always been a fool for blondes, so Betty would be my choice.

I never thought about that but you are correct.
Betty was clearly a stalker before it was trendy.

I don't know whether that is correct or not, but....,

all I know is the top mammals wang is showing..and it's distracting once you know it's there.
 

Is that a tail light cover?

Got this book and a bonus pence book and a nice note today! 
Thanks, Sparky - hope you are doing well wherever you are! 

+1 on this, imo for CGC to adopt a system (any system I guess) that offers objective consistency, several features of a raw book, including vibrancy of colour, would have to be discarded as impossible to measure- gloss, or reflectivity and colour are subjective. Creases, stains, folds etc are objective and either exist or do not exist. For me this has always been the essence of the dichotomy between technical grade (the number on the slab) and eye appeal, which is only knowable raw and in certain light. A scanner almost always makes a book look worse than it is. The book looks lovely to me, presently in the slab, I'm sure it will look even better raw, if you can afford to crack it out.
