PGM Avengers #1

[clubberl]

Hey all,

 

Pretty clean cover, bit of chipping on bottom. Top right corner bit rounded, actually looks worse in the picture than in hand.

Back cover some creasing, barely goes thru to back page. No tears, although I thought for sure there would be one.

Spine-mostly just the green part lost some color.

 

CGC it? Press it first? Put it in the vault for a year until the movie comes round?

 

Thanks!

I'd go with a 6.0/possible 6.5 if the back top is a crease and not a tear. I would think you could get a nice bump with a press, since it's the BC that's keeping the grade down. Nice book (thumbs u

 

Edit after fully reading post

[oakman29]

That front cover is a beauty,6.0 due to back cover (thumbs u

Nice looking copy. (thumbs u

 

I don't think pressing will correct the flaws to the BC, in fact, I think it would only have a deleterious effect on the book as a whole

 

OO? or who did you buy it from? Not on eBay I hope . . .

technically likely only a 6.5 - but very nice eye-appeal!

[Marvelfangirl]

That's one awesome book.I give it a 6.0.

[TFL-migration]

6.0 Possible 6.5 In hand. IMHO

[Dr_Neff]

6.5 nice one

CGC it? YES Press it first? NO Put it in the vault for a year until the movie comes round? Slab it now and hold it until you absolutely need to sell it.

6.5 as is. Not sure about pressing - send it to Matt for a pro-screen before CGC though. Beautiful front cover!

[ARK]

6.0 What a beautiful FC. It is to bad it was the bottom book of the bundle. I would screen the book with Matt also.

Pretty sure Matt would be able to get a lot of the back cover folds out. Not perfect, but I think it would bump it to a 6.5 instead of a 6.0

 

With a minute chance at a 7.0......Maybe

[Fedoraman]

6.0 now - potential for 7.5ish if pressed IMHO.

 

 

Send it to Matt for a bit-o-pressing, then slabberize that book.

joeypost - could you chime in and set these "opinions" on pressing straight? TIA

[JmC]

nice 6.0

What's that supposed to mean?

Exactly what it says - I'm asking a professional presser to give his opinion on what pressing can and cannot do to the flaws on the BC of this book.

Thanks for the input. I'm guessing Matt is from Classics Inc.? Some further info on the back cover. After some closer inspection, its appears most of the problems are indentations and not hard creases. I am going to send it in and have it looked at for possible pressing and then forward it to CGC. I will let you all know the outcome. Thanks and keep the feedback coming, its a great learning tool for me.

[Mio]

My instricts tell me you will be very pleased with the results. Good luck! And don't forget to re-post when you eventually get it back from CGC.

Current grade of book right now is a 6.0 I thinki.. If pressed, a 7.0
