I would take them out of the bag.

 

I would inspect the front cover.

 

I would inspect the back cover.

 

I would carefully inspect the interior pages.

 

That's how I would grade these books.

They look like 9.4-9.6 range books to me.

They look like 9.4-9.6 range books to me.

 

I'd agree for the most part - but there's some "funkiness" (to use the technical term) going on with one or both staples on three of the four books. Not sure how much CGC would penalize for this, but I'd say a full .2 in the more egregious cases. And in at least one instance, I'm guessing that the staple is so mangled that it's affecting the tightness of the c-fold...

 

So I'd say they're all in the 9.2 - 9.4 range - assuming the back covers are pristine.

based solely on the front covers in their bags, i'd agree that these look to be all in the 9.2 - 9.6 range.

Thanks guys these books are really pristine except as you noted the lower staple on mtu # 18 and upper staple on mtu # 23 just wondering how much pain it will cost the grades.

Thanks again,
