Hey Mike!

Just wanted to confirm that there are two corner bends on the back cover? They are hard to see but I do believe they are there but would you please confirm?

Thanks!

back cover: top upper left bend, the bottom left is I believe a wrinkle

actually, looking at the high-res pic, it's more like dirt so much than it is a bend: http://s23.photobucket.com/user/heymikesays/media/Avengers/IH181bc_zps9fe7f866.jpg.html

I'm thinking you've got an 8.5 as is. The back cover appears to have bends where the dirt has accumulated but they seem fairly mild and would probably press out? Clean and press and you might be able to pull off 9.2? (thumbs u

Here you go Mike - not sure what number to attach to it.

 

FC

 

Upper left corner - spine rounding and color breaks - tough corner

Upper middle edge (above the "EL") - cracking/ color breaks

White area of the upper K/ comics code - ink

Upper right corner - color break/ crease

Spine - 10 ticks/ all brak color

Bottom left corner - rounding wear

Bottom right corner - wear and the start of a crease

Slightly above bottom right corner - book indentation on Hulk's lower knee

 

 

BC

 

Upper left corner - rounding

Upper left edge - 5 indentations/ maybe the start of a tear or two

Bottom right edge/ corner/ bottom - rounding and what may appear to be the start of some tearing

Bottom middle of the book - not sure what that is

Bottom spine right corner - color break and tear, rounding

Upper spine right corner - 2 tears and rounding

Upper middle of the book/ red are - printing error - red ink and foxing deterioration above the dotted line

Foxing (and browning) in areas throughout the yellow section on the BC

Reddish staining (possible bleed) on lower BC through B&W text

Dirt and general wear prevalent in the OW areas.

no worry, thanks for the detailed feedback! anyone know what this would grade at with these flaws?

[ROBTOTHEC]

I have no idea how he can see all those flaws. I am having a really hard time even after enlarging it. My gut tells me it is 7.0 but you must post sharper scans because

I am not confidant at all with that.

when you click on the image, it takes you to photobuckets host, theres a magnifying tool that you can click on that allows you to zoom in on it about 4 times as large than what you see.

7.5 but you should post 600 dpi scans on a book like that!

[Mxwll Smrt]

It's still a really nice book and I think it's going to get an 8.0.

[Captain_Pike]

7.0

[AlexanderM]

I think 8.0.
