PGM: FF 67

Not the best pics... Just want to know your input

 

Corner ding at the top left corner. Is this enough to make it to 9.0?

Beautiful book! Worth getting it pressed? Maybe that would guarantee a 9.0. (thumbs u

[HighStakesComics]

I'd say closer to 8.0, but that is a well-centered copy adding to it's desirability.

[JollyComics]

It looks a promise. Why not submit to CGC? See what you will get. I am sure you will have the promise.

[steveinthecity]

I'm thinking closer to 8.0/8.5.

[vpcomics]

I'm at 8.0 on this one as well.

[prez]

Thanks for the input guys. Appreciate it!

8.5

[___]

I think it would be close to 9.0 with a press but not a guarantee, solid 8.5 though

[DavidTheDavid]

Ooh, purty book. Don't see a 9.0 with that upper corner, but 8.5 certainly a possibility.

[prez]

I'm actually okay with an 8.5 - perfect match for my IM55 and thor 165. I'm a half glass full kind of guy.

[vaillant]

Yes, great centering is definitely a plus, and surely a VF+, maybe a VFNM.

 

This is mine, which I bought as a VFNM (in hand it looks even better):

 

[prez]

Great copy Claudio. Is your copy from a cracked cgc 9.0?

[vaillant]

No, but bought from a very reliable dealer (Escapist Comics), advertised as a VFNM and I quite agree, although there can always be some fluctuations when you grade, even by CGC.

 

A deslabbed 9.2 was this one I sold recently: cover is yellower but as you see minor defects (top left corner) are still allowed in VF to NM grades.

 

[vaillant]

If you want another comparision, here’s an ungraded copy which I consider in the same range we are discussing (VF to VFNM):

Thanks for the very helpful feedback/posts Claudio. I'm now leaning towards more to subbing my copy.

 

Best regards,

Such a beautiful book to have without any yellowing or tanning!!

[vaillant]

@white_rushin: Keep looking, it took me a good amount time to find a pair of copies I like, and the movie hype in some way helped but in more than a way it hindered because the book became pricey.

 

Because of the search I did on this book, I became fixated with better paper quality (and thus whiter covers), a lot more than the grade.

Often I am happy with a VG/FN book with a white, clean cover.

[vaillant]

P.S. Paulo, I guess it’s worth grading, especially if for some reason you will sell it.

Hard to tell but hopefully I won't need to sell one of the cores of my collection. That will be very disappointing.
