Wizard #1 SS candidate - slabbing input needed

[Mister Freeze-migration]

I have been on the look out for quite awhile now for a high grade raw Wizard #1. Finally found one with nice crisp corners. Wondering if anyone here has gotten a magazine like this SS/slabbed? The overall thickness of the book is obviously different from a comic as well as the actual front and back cover pages.

 

On the front cover, there is a slight crease between the letters "W" and "I". On the back cover, there are at least four subtle thumb like indentations in the middle. I started a thread in the PGM section. But anyone with opinions or experience, feel free to drop me a line. Thanks for checking out my thread.

Wouldn't that just be slabbed under the Magazine tier in the large holder?

Wizard #1 has been SS'd before, if that is what you want to know.

Back cover. Check out the ad and be sure to put your order in now for that X-Men #1. I hear there will be variant covers too.

Yes thank you. I am thinking of going the SS route because I doubt this will have a chance at a blue label 9.8 or even 9.6. I would say solid 9.4 contender.

 

Do you pretty much "grade" this just like a comic then? In other words, because of the structural differences in the magazine, meaning certain flaws may be more pronounced in the Wizard because of the texture/thickness, is there any slack factor at all?

 

Thanks for your post.

Right. That is correct. This is my first experience with a potential magazine slab. High grade blue label Wizard #1's are pretty scarce hence my curiosity in this particular issue.

Magazines grade just like comics.

Very nice. Congrats. Is this for your own collection or are you a seller/dealer? Thanks for your post.
