PGM Amazing Spider-Man 410

Hey gang,

 

The main issue with this book is the spine.

 

Its a case of modern-age spine split.

 

 

 

 

Appreciate any feedback.

Wow! I wonder if that would be treated as a bindery spine split. I'm going to say 9.0 but I think I'll probably get shot down by a few other boardies.

I'd love to hear what they think...hint, hint.

6.0 few creases. I don't think that would be considered a production error or bindery spine split

[DavidTheDavid]

No idea what to do on that one.

 

But not a 9.0 imho.

My question is this. Is this really a spine split or has the page somehow "frayed"? I have seen books where the colour cover has "lifted" from the fabric of the paper itself. Can you see daylight through this spine split when the cover is opened?

I just checked, you cannot see daylight through that part.

That's kind of what I thought. I don't think this would be categorized as a spine split and it may indeed be production related.

 

I'm thinking Joey Post might be the best person to ask for a more professional opinion with regard to something of this nature. You may want to send him a request for an opinion.

It's seems production related because the book is in Great shape otherwise.

I'm with Timern. Minus the spine-split - or whatever that is- I'd give the book a 9.0. If it is a spine split, I'd give it a 6.0 or 6.5. I'd be interested to know how CGC would treat it
