PGM - Amazing Spider-Man #300

I believe the red speck in the circle just to the right of Spidey's head is a red ink printing defect, but I'm uncertain...

 

Thanks for looking!

 

EDIT: I was unable to get imgur to function properly, but I prefer that service. Here are the direct links to view the book there in a better format:

EDIT #2: It was pointed out that the back cover wasn't properly scanned, so I've fixed that.

I'm at a 9.4/9.6 on this one.

 

To me it seems like CGC has been very lenient on ASM #300's over the past 6 months.

 

I'm a really big fan of this Comic and I've purchased 6 CGC 9.6's within the past 4 months and I returned 5 of them because they all had color breaking spine ticks, corner dings, non color breaking creases, all of these flaws were really visible from outside the slab.

 

2 of them had at least a 1/4" color breaking spine crease on them and one of the 2 also had a color breaking corner ding on the back cover.

 

One thing I noticed on all 5 of the ones I returned they were all graded within the last 6 months. The only 9.6 that I didn't send back, it was graded back in 2004.

 

Again, this is just my opinion but I feel like CGC has become extremely lenient with this Comic lately.

The book has been trimmed!

Okay, okay. Just to get your attention. The back cover scan has been "cropped" and it would be better to see the all edges of the back cover before passing a grade!

I didn't even notice - I must have placed it in the scanner poorly.

 

I'll update shortly.

Thanks I will grade it tomorrow.

9.4 IMHO! The front cover presents as a 9.8 but the back cover shows a number of spine stresses. It doesn't look as though any break colour. There is a small bindery tear visible on the LRBC.

 

Really sharp copy. I wouldn't be at all shocked if it came back at 9.6. This may also be a pressing candidate. You might consider sending it into Joey or Matt for consideration. Professional press may = 9.8??
