PGM: Fantastic Four #39

[blue808]

This book is currently at CGC on a Economy Fast Track submission. Any guess to what grade it will receive? I will update this thread once I get the results. Thanks.

I would guess about 8.5 cant see too much wrong outside of the soft corners and ragged edge paper edge which is probably a printing defect. Also the slightly rough spine and slight browning on back cover.All in all a really nice book

I agree with this description, except I'd go 9.0, unless that hint of a "ragged" edge is worse than it seems in the scan.

 

Beautiful book, great colors. Good luck!

I would guess your right on with the ragged edge being better in hand. These stupid scanners kill a nice book. I used to think all my collection was 9.8 till I bought my scanner. Guess that is why you see so many comics non scanned on the BAY

Yeah, there's no doubt that scanners emphasize defects. But I think that tends to offset collectors' tendency to overgrade!

That is a great book: 9.0

9.0

Wow - let me jump on the 9.0 bandwagon. hard to find anything glaringly wrong with this book. looks like a smudge or maybe a stain on the upper BC. great shape for a Black cover.................

Easy 9.0, but a 9.2 is not out of the question (thumbs u

I just received my books finalized grades from CGC. Anyone else want to take a guess before I post the actual grade?

Wow. I thought a 9.0. I guess I am an undergrader. Anybody want to buy a book?

Sure ... I'll buy all your raw 9.0's

It is like that until I submit some books myself, then it comes in lower.
