That's a large tear on FC and very noticeable. My first thought was 2, but maybe 2.5

 

Please report back if you get it slabbed.

Not sure how much that tear will knock the grade down. Anyone else have thoughts?

 

I plan on slabbing it at some point along with a couple of other lower-grade keys. Will definitely report back when I do.

I was thinking 2.5. The cover does have substantial wear, but it was the tears by Beast that were my big concerns.

3.0

3.0 By the smallest of margins. 2.5 is possible if The CGC is grading stricter on the given day your book is slabbed.

2.5 is my guess... the trauma-ish tear dead center plus creasing will drop it quite a bit. Lot of positive qualities for the grade tho. (thumbs u

2.5 IMHO! Nice copy but the damage in the middle of the front cover is.........sad to say ugly!!

[Shawn Low]

Thanks all.

 

The tear isn't pretty but the piece in the middle isn't actually missing. I managed to actually flip it back in place and it doesn't look quite as bad. Ditto the tear in the LLC. Managed to flip it down. Should have done all that before the scan!
