PGM Walt Disneys Christmas Parade 6

Not bad for a 54 year old White squarebound methinks.

Wish that darn crease on the LFC wasnt there

What do you all think??

3.0

3.0??

 

Thank God no one knows how to grade squarebonds! That book looks like a solid 7.0 to me. maybe a 6.5 but I'm definitely leaning 7.0

I agree - these Dell Giants are really cool. The have a super-thick stiff cardboard stock cover. I think I had the Yogi Bear and the Woody Woodpecker Family issues at one time.

Bronzi, you've always got some great books to share . . . (thumbs u

I'll show you some DELL squarebounds from the Shiflett collection. Then you compare my grades to this issue.

Thanks Divad!!

I feel like I wasted my time and money getting my Giants graded. Save your money on this one, Bronzilla, because it will only come back with a low grade. You'd probably get more raw, should you decide to sell it.

[bronzilla]

Thanks for the Advice, I could never sell my GOLD/SILVER Walt Disneys.

I also never slab although I do occasionally buy a graded book.

So this will stay raw!

I'm glad this one didn't show up in Nik's grading contest!

 

Very tough to grade a white book in a scan. It looks like a solid Fine or above, except for that long crease. There also seem to be some creases on the back on the dark colored areas (Donald's hand, the horse's eye, etc.), which makes me wonder if there aren't more creases in the white areas.

 

I'd go with 5.0.

[TFL-migration]

VK. It looks like Stevie Wonder was hired for the day when you got the grades. Lie I said. Buy the book. Not The Slab... 6.5 on the Little Lulu?? I don't see how. Has to be some pretty serious hidden defects. If not then CGC missed the grade big time....

My only slabbed Dell Giant to compare with:
