PGM Fantastic Four #47

[vaillant]

Another quick PGM: assuming as usual a similar back cover, how much would you downgrade this copy because of the subscription crease (which is the main defect?).

I am always pretty much undecided about those.

Anyone?

I'd call that a 7.0 without the crease, and maybe a 5.5 with it.

If you go by the overstreet grading standards, a subscription crease is an automatic 4.0. No matter how pretty the book is. Which can be good for us collectors because if you can live with the sub crease you can get some glossy, vibrant cover books for the vg price. Then depending on the additional wear the grade can drop. But with the corner creases top right, bottom right corner. The 18 small spine creases, the bottom left corner crease running from the spine in the direction of the opposite corner approx. 3- 4 cm long. the cover rubbing thru the colour of Mister fantastic trousers and the Thing's torso, Nice book and with the defects described it is still a 4.0

If it is a severely damaging crease, I can see 4.0 - if it is a lighter crease, I don't think it would be as harshly deducted, hence my 5.5.

 

All IMHO, of course!

By Overstreet I think southerncross is right – by CGC it could be a bit more, but not much, considered the other defects, so I’ll call it a VG/VG+ and that’s just fine.

I have to group it with others on a lot, so it’s just good to assign a fair grade.

 

Thanks to both! (thumbs u

I'm at a 4.0. The sub crease is quite visible in certain areas of the cover driving it down.

YEP 4.0ish, maybe 4.5

VG is just fine – thanks! (thumbs u

One of the all time great FF covers. (thumbs u

[jop]

4.5 per E-Bigs

[timfinz]

Great cover, too bad about the subscription crease. I would guess 4.0

Agreed – and so is #46. (thumbs u

But #45 alone gets all the hype…

It’s an undercopy…

I'd say 6.0 without sub crease and a 4.0 with it

[Crimebuster]

4.0/4.5 for me as well.
