PGM Fantastic Four #45

Fantastic Four #45. Original owner, no restoration. There may be some glare from the camera.

 

Dealer's stamp first interior page. And those are not tears at the left edge back cover; they look like pencil marks to me. Wear to back cover perhaps more evident in hand. Very light crease through artist's arm, upper left.

 

A few more FFs today I've been saving up. Thanks, all!

4.0/4.5 'cause of big creases on fc and color loss fc bottom. Maybe just a tad better that the FF 50 you posted...also seems to be a small stain on the bc spine of this one too.

4.0 IMHO!

Ha! I thought just the opposite! I felt the FF50 was slightly better presentation!

I didn't spot any stains on this book and I had a second look at FF50 and my impression was that it was a crease not a stain?

Maybe Roger can clarify!

I apparently thought I saw one I didn't on this book (looks like soiling now that I'm on my home monitor) mid spine, bc.

 

The 50 I believe does have a small stain almost perfectly between the staples, bc spine....I'm almost positive.

Holy bohungus! You guys are so far over my head, I’m getting neck strain.

 

All kinds of little wrinkles and smudges on the BC of this one. As to the spine edge I see a little crease in the glare at top, then further down a faint “pencil mark”, then a streak of smudge down the bottom half. Nothing that could be called a stain, as in moisture, soup, etc.

 

As to #50, I see what might be a stain OR a crease, but boys, I’m looking right at it, and I can’t tell what it is – other than a variation in the color. You guys have to come on over and hash this out in the living room. I’ll have a nice bottle o’ red, or some Jack Black if you prefer, when you get there.

 

Your attention to detail is inspiring. You know you could apply to CGC or Heritage for a job, don’cha?

 

But don’t leave me just yet!

 

Thanks!

on the back cover just to the left of the pencils on the desk. is that a small hole punched through the cover from the inside?

[blackwalnut]

No, that's just a tiny spot. Several of those on the BC.
