Is that inch or so long line on the front cover a crease or a stain? On the back cover, the top-left corner, looks like a dirt, but could be a crease it's hard to tell from the scan. Amazing book either way!

what happened at Angel's knee? is that a misprint of some sort or some chemical discoloring? this might be a 4.0 or better

[oakman29]

very nice 5.5/6.0 (thumbs u

[c-mack]

6.5

[Green]

It looks like a previously slabbed book to me. The indentions in the top edge of the back cover look to match up to an inner well perfectly. In the price box on the front cover the green looks professionally color touched. I would get it checked out by a professional.

structually a 5.5/6.0 barring any slight/moderate (A) or (P).

Book looks like a solid 6.0 to me.

 

As far as what you have on your hands though....

Thats a good question.

[MagnetoWasRight]

wow...great book...i'd guess about a 6.0

[capt hook]

hard to tell about Angel's knee. It does look to have some restoration done to it. I didn't know that when I got it. In fact I didn't realize it till you folks noticed it. It came as the icing on the cake in a large collection purchase. Thanks all for your input.

[Marvelfangirl]

WOW!!! that is one AWESOME X-Men #1

I give it a 5.0 (thumbs u

[Mio]

+1

Yeah, my first impression was color touch along the spine and in the green in the corner. It just doesn't look quite right. But I'd say 6.5 or so grade-wise

[thedude]

6.5/7.0 nice book!

[BlowUpTheMoon]

The top right corner of the BC looks like someone started to use an eraser on it then stopped.

[Dark Knight]

Looks like a 6.0 as well.. May have some color touch like what some people have mentioned. Better get it checked out
