I just did not like the asthetics of the front cover (light transfer staining) in the blue grays. And some minute rusting of the staples.

VintageComics Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Roy mentioned he seen the Savannah copy raw. From what I saw a press wouldn't help the book. There was color breaking wear at the top edge as well as a decent crease through GL's lower foot that keeps the grade down. I got the feeling that someone just wanted a reasonably nice copy of this book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimik Posted February 25, 2011 Author Share Posted February 25, 2011 (edited) I think I posted my opinion on the grade here a few pages ago, but I do not feel it is even a low end 8.0 based on other books I have had graded/owned in the past with similar wear.......
