Book removed from bound collection - Green or Blue?

[Red84]

How does removing a book from a bound volume affect the grade?

I found a book that was bound together with other issues and has since been removed so it has 3 small holes in it. However, the book is intact, staples firmly attached, and looks like a high grade book.

 

Would a book like this get a green label acknowledging the binding holes, or a blue label with the binding holes significantly affecting the grade?

 

Thanks

Most bound books are trimmed, so a purple label is in order.

If it isn't trimmed, you can choose GREEN OR BLUE

If it isn't trimmed, then I'd say Blue. I always thought 3-hole-punched books were automatically knocked down to a 2.0 regardless of how perfect the rest of the book is.

There was a Tales of Suspense #1 for sale years ago, and I believe it may have been e-bay or one of the big dealer sites. It had three binder holes in it. I think it was an CGC 8.5 or a 9.0.

 

Some one else can chime in if they remember that book, but I could not believe that grade with three punched holes.

Wow. I'll have to check that out. I've set aside quite a few great looking books over the years as simply low-grade readers.

Below is a link to the book that made me bring up this question. The book looked great except for the tiny holes.

I have a book I bought out of a bounded archive and cgc'ed as restoration due to leftover bounding glue on spine. CGC cannot properly identify unbounded books to avoid restoration.

 

Owner of Blastoff Comics says he is such good friends with CGC that he could talk to them to get the resto Label removed but I passed....

glue/glue damage from an obviously bound comic should be graded as a defect and not resto, as far as i know.

[solarcadet]

Tell that to CGC...

 

They will not do that...

I think that book has color touch anyway.

I didn't buy it, but for educational purposes, where do you think there is color touch?

Right on the spine, looks like some bleed through on the inside of the Front Cover.

In the second picture. On the top right, do you think the pink looking color is color touch also?

where,exactly? i see nothing. one of the holes punched in the cover lines up with the top staple, making the area look dark. i don't see anything that looks like touch bleeding though.

nope. comic was a bit of a miswrap. that's where some of the red from the front cover used to be before being ripped off by glue.
