I'm calling it a 9.2 (thumbs u

 

I must be missing something as I think it is better than a 9.2 ?

It looks at least 9.4, maybe 9.6. The one thing you can't ascertain from a scan is the page quality and freshness of the book. If it has these qualities I say 9.6.

Nice book, good luck with the grade.

Ditto, at least a 9.6 given the scan. I only see a couple of tiny flaws on the corner/spine/edges. If there is really nothing else wrong with it, 9.8 isn't wrong to expect. I've got about 2000 new comics that have flaws like that, or less. That's a beautiful book, congrats.

 

I've been away from collecting for many years, but it seems that there is a tendency or motive to push down all grades. I'm used to the Overstreet grading, before the number system existed. There wasn't much difference between a NM and a Mint. I don't mind the extra grades above VFNM-NM, but it has negatively affected all grades below those new levels. A 9.0/9.2 used to be the standard, the goal. Now that stuff is frowned on by some, and the books in the VFNM range are being called VF's, the new 8.0 stuff. I don't appreciate the changes, which started in the early 90's. Regards,

back right top corner...is that a chip missing?

no,just a slight "bend"..the scanner really makes it look worst...

and it will get pressed out...everthing else with that top corner,front/back is production related.
