PGM: FF 1

[TheSurgeon]

Thank you. One defect in the cover is the loss of the outer layer of paper on the upper left, over "THE Fant." The cover is intact, but the glossy layer is off. The spine is solid, no splitting at all. Staples secure without rust. There is slight marvel chipping.

 

Thank you!

That's an interesting defect...don't think I've ever seen that before...

I was initially going to automatically say 3.5...but i think the overall quality of the book shoud garner a 4.0...if I bought it as a 4.0 I'd be more than happy!

 

NICE ONE!

precisely what i was thinking...

 

that missing layer (an unusual defect, to be sure) will probably cost you a full point.

 

BUT, since it blends in so well, it becomes quite a decent looking 3.5 IMHO... (thumbs u

[TheSurgeon]

It does blend it well- it must be tape pull. It's missing the IND stamp, though! I think that's the name of the comic distributer (Independent Distributor) but correct me if I am wrong.

[Mutant Manatee]

You are correct, the "IND." distributor mark is missing from the upper left corner.

I guess that bothers me more than it does other people, that's why I gave it a 3.0.

 

However, the book does still present well overall.

[mysterymachine]

luckily its a white cover and the cover loss is not too distracting. I would say 4.0 also.

[JohnT]

3.5, just because on principle I don't think a comic can have a tape pull that large and be a VG, no matter how well it blends in.

[TheShadowKnows]

3.0,A very nice book that looks nicer than the grade.

[TheSurgeon]

I submitted this to CGC and just found out they gave it a blue 5.5 OW/W! The comic definitely looks better in hand than the scans show. I was hoping for a 5.0, as I thought they would take a point off for the tape pull and it does look like a 6.0 otherwise. I should get it back tomorrow- hopefully they did not make an error on the web site.

 

Also, what is the rule on editing a thread? Is there a time limit? I wanted to change the title of the thread to indicate that the book was graded, but can't seem to do that.

 

Thanks everyone.

Wow! Congrats

 

By the way, I believe the edit time is limited to 3 days...after that it's locked for secula seculorum.
