scans are kind of small but a stellar looking copy for sure...perfect centering...wowza!

[etanick]

something about the text on the left side of the book that doesn't look right to me

 

the red text"Sentational Fantastic Four"

[Gem_Mint]

Its not as bold as my copy...

[pieces of eight-migration]

8.0-8.5 if no color touch.

[etanick]

the fading is making the text looks weird. The yellow in all the costumes aren't sharp and so is the blue and purple. Oddly, the green didn't fade as much.

[Chicago Boy]

something seems odd on the header and under the price. color touch with a stencil?

[etanick]

i think the uneven fading of the red is making all the red texts look weird.....this book is a lot easier to grade in hands for sure....too many things a scan can't answer

Yeah, I'm wondering if the logo and the words at the top aren't color-touched. Magneto and the word box above his head looks really light-faded.

[Jterp5]

Thank you for the comments so far. Any other thoughts on estimated grade?

[HighStakesComics]

If I were to guess I agree there may be some ct. 7.5 purple.

[uchiha101]

I think it looks like a 9.0

[Bomber-Bob]

There is a lot of color fading on the cover. The pics of the bottom look cropped but I think I see, in the BC pic, some problems. IMO 7.5 .

[makeminemego]

I could be wrong, but it looks like the book has had plenty of work done on it.

I am pretty sure this copy was on ebay two weeks ago. I messaged the seller to ask if it was restored and never got a reply.

[The-Collector]

yep, here it is:

I would bummed if I was the buyer.

 

My message sent on the 20th of august (please excuse the typing errors):

 

"Dear harleymarcopolo,

 

Does this book have any restoration? The spine looks like it make have some colour touch/paper repairs and the top right hand corner of the FC looks like it may have been reattached.

 

Thanks for your time

 

sincerely

He left a response when you click on that link. Claims no work done, and he will refund the buyer if it comes back restored.

[Spiderphill]

My guess is 7.0 EP
