It's been a while since I've had a submission graded this harshly. The grades are fair I suppose but definitely strict. 

Agree 100%
From the "1973 Collection" I picked up. 

Spoiler

I have submitted a handful of Golden through Bronze Ages comic books and no BA magazines, nor any of my original owner copies of SA and BA. The ones I submitted, most recently about 7 years ago, received the grades I expected. I have submitted few because I estimate CGC in the last several years may (will) under-grade a great many of the back issues I purchased and the few original owner copies I have with me, the vast majority being in storage.

Of course, with no "luck" at all, when I do submit, perhaps a great many of them, CGC will be setting a new record for harsh grading. :frown:

Just got this back from CGC.  Purchased it off these boards from @Batarag.  He called it VF 8.0 and - Boom! - nailed it.  Full gloss, rich colors, spot-on centering.

Adventures of Jerry Lewis #97.  Batman, Robin and The Joker on the cover.  Appearances by Penguin and Riddler.  Wow!

I did not want to get it slabbed but it was too fragile to handle.  All interior pages are held by staples but it's looking delicate.

The Off-White pages is actually a relief because I had them as borderline cream.

Love it!  Don't know why it doesn't bring ASM 50 money.  Which would you rather have?  Honestly.  Only 34 on the CGC Universal census including mine.  Only 16 grade higher.
