Golden Age Grades Please - SUPERMAN #66 (sitting on the CGC fence on this one)

Golden Age Grades Please

 

(note - I have selected 10 issues out of the collection that are definitely going to CGC and then I will be selling them. I am on the fence with this one, should I submit it if I intend to sell it?)

 

 

I need some help grading the better issues in this 200+ issue Golden Age collection I recently acquired.

 

I am going to keep some of them but will eventually sell most of them.

 

I want to submit some of the better ones to CGC, but I am not used to grading Golden Age books (i.e. factoring in the “Golden Age bump” from CGC that some people claim exists).

 

So please give me your numerical grades. And if you want to give me your opinion of whether it is worth my spending the cost of slabbing it before selling it, I would be interested in hearing your opinion.

 

FYI - The 2007 Oversteet prices for this issue in GD/VG/FN are as follows:

 

$71/$142/$213

 

 

 

 

[Aces]

5.5

[CAP Freak]

5.0

 

I would keep it raw.

[dekeuk]

5.0

 

I would keep it raw.

 

Why?

 

If it gets a 5.0 won't I be able to get at least the incremental amount of the slabbing fee back as a higher sales price when I sell it?

5.0! Don't Slab!
