Hi all - considering sending this one in for grading but it's a little beat up. Thoughts?

Good colors on it i can see 3.0/3.5 my 2 cents!

Looks 3.0 but GA 3.5 wouldn't shock me. Pretty cool.

3.0

3.0 IMHO! I think the combination of flaws is enough to keep it from grading any higher. But what a nice piece of history!

Thanks for the opinions all. I realize in hindsight a dark piece of paper behind the book would make for a more viewable scan. Next time.

 

As an aside, the piece of the back cover that's folded over...a grader wouldn't touch that correct? So it would end up in a slab looking the same way? Should I try to flatten that out prior to grading or just leave it as is? Would it even affect the grade?

 

Any opinions appreciated. Thanks.

Personally I would flatten the piece out unless it is brittle or feels/appears as though it will fall off if touched. If it feels securely attached to the cover still fold it back over!

 

Here's a link to the PGM Guidelines that has hints and helpful suggestions. Take a minute to read through it. It is still a work-in-progress page but there are some tips you may find useful.

 

Cheers!
