PGM: Tales of Suspense #1

18 posts in this topic

Dust shadow on the back cover. Top center of front cover has a ding above the 's' in Tales. I really wonder if pressing this might not make an improvement in grade?

I'm going to say 9.0 on this one, because it looks like there are some blemishes on the spine.

 

What a cool book: pre "pre-hero horror" sci-fi. And that's a beautiful Don Heck cover--a phrase I don't think I've ever used.

Holy Cow Cheetah, Nice book.

 

Is that ding up top just cover related,. or is it a bundle type whole book indent?

 

Look like a very solid 8.5, possibly higher.

 

Did I saw Wow already?

It's just the cover. Pretty sure the original owner did it during transport! (missing the puking in a bucket smily...)

7.5/8.0 sweet book!!

 

i'm thinking this is about right. just enough spine dings and tanning on BC to keep it in the 8.0 range. Which, i suspect, makes it rather rare........... (thumbs u

 

I, too, would suspect that this book is rare in the 8.0 range. Nice find or shrewd purchase.

CGC Census shows 27 graded. One restored 9.0, one unrestored 8.5, and two unrestored 8.0. I'd never seen the cover, either, and was surprised by the outer space setting.

Beautiful copy...definitely in the 9.0-ish range...could be the nicest graded...let us know if you send it in! Puts my copy to shame... (thumbs u :banana:

 

(Not to be too nosy but would you mind sharing where you found it/picked it up?)
