PGM New Mutants Annual #2

9 posts in this topic

Finally I was able to "upgrade" my old, well-loved copy.

I hold this book particularly dear because it’s been one of my very first books in original language, and one of those which prompted me to collect the original US editions. :)

 

Love to hear your thoughts, then I’ll tell you what the advertised grade by the seller was. :)

 

P.S. It has a production crease, but it’s a lot magnified by the scanner's light.

Great book! I see impact damage on the lower RHS front cover. The rest of the front cover looks awesome. The production flaw is just that and nothing more. The back cover has very minute spine stresses (highlighted by the scanner light) so no real issues. Very minor blunted corners at the top of the back cover too - but very minor. I would think you might get away with 9.4 but because of the impact damage on the front cover I would have to say 9.0 to 9.2. Regardless awesome book! (thumbs u

I think it’s not a problem of the printer's crease (which usually is barely taken into account), but rather than the fact that it has some soft corners and very minor corner wear, which in my opinion prevents it from the higher grades.

It has also a very mild crease in the bottom right corner, which I am not sure if it’s production related or not.

 

I bought it as a VFNM (9.0) raw, but I think 9.2 is correct – glad to hear other evaluations, anyway! (thumbs u
