Oh, to be totally accurate this started as a RESTORED NG (Missing the cover and the entire first page, reproduction cover - and a WRONG reproduction of page one - attached to the book with double sided tape, CGC misidentified that tape as glue...yikes). Not sure what the owner was smoking that made him think all this would get him a 0.5 (he says he did all that amateur work hoping for that grade, and I had to give him a few lessons on actually turning NG books to 0.5 properly), but I was happy to buy it off him for cheap just to have some sort of X-Men #1 in my collection...but then decided to go all out on it once a loose original cover came up for sale locally.

So this junk went from Restored NG to Conserved 2.5.
