LUKE CAGE HERO FOR HIRE #1

[Wall-Crawler]

Interior pages are solid, no issues...It is the back cover...Want opinions on how bad to hammer it down for the stain ...No rippling or anything like that though. Thank you.

 

Note: The straight vertical line is from the scanner, not a crease on the book.

I dunno....I'd estimate it at a 5.0

[ROBTOTHEC]

4.5 IMHO

[timfinz]

I'm thinking 4.5 mostly because of the water stain on the back cover.

[vaillant]

I think VGF (5.0) is fine, would have been about a FN without the stain, so I guess it’s more or less spot on.

3.5...CGC will murder the book due to the water stain.

Not always. I recall an early Archie with a much bigger stain on the front that got a 5.0 - not that I agreed with it, but it's not the only one. I think they may have been tougher in the early days than they are now.

 

The book looks like a 4.5 to me.

I say 4.5, and agree with the last part.

 

It would have been a 5.5-6.0 IMHO w/out the stain.

4.0

I believe there is a small tear then a crease in the same line from the right edge. That may bring it down to 6.0 or 6.5.

 

With that water stain (I dunno if CGC would murder that) it would bring it down to somewhere between 4.5 to 5.0.

I have several books as evidence...here's one...see the small water stain on the TLC?

Murdered. With that said, I think the JIM would grade higher if submitted today.

 

I'll go 4.0 on the Hero For Hire.
