I know this isn't a grading forum, but what grade do you think CGC would give this book based on the front cover alone. Eighth of an inch spine split in upper left of spine. Thanks All!

JohnT Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 If you check out the Brave & Bold 34 I just posted, you'll notice the image is not as sharp as the book. Believe me the colors on this book are very bright and very sharp. Someone please tell me how to make the scan so as to reflect the true colors on the book. PS--I upload straight from my computer; I do use photbucket or photoshop--at least at present, Thanks, Steve Steve, I believe you need to switch to an online site to host your photos, such as photobucket (which is free and easy to use). As I recall there is a limit to the size of files the boards allow you to upload as an attachment, and I assume that's why your images are low resolution and appear blurry. There's no such limitation in linking to a site that already has the images uploaded. That's how people are getting these awesome scans. When you get an image on the host site, you copy and paste the url after clicking the "Enter an image" button at the top of the reply box (it's the third button from the left on top of the box you get when you click "reply"). Hope this helps... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks 6.0ish to me. Are the staples rusty? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevenrams Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 No, staples aren't rusty. I thought maybe a 5.0 due to the crease in upper right area. Thanks for your opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnT Posted May 3, 2009 Share Posted May 3, 2009 Some of these are SA, some "Atom" Age, some GA, but all are recent arrivals from Ebay. I'm getting into these obscure DC funny animal books thanks to the books that have been posted in the 365 thread... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 been looking for a clean copy of this a long time, totally common book, but usually found in fine or less and with a dirty cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnT Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Wow Silver, that looks way better than a 9.0. Just look at that spine! So, are you putting together a little run of Adventures? And when are you going to free that puppy from it's prison? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And when are you going to free that puppy from it's prison? My current goal on Adventure is 247 and 267 through 380 (need about 12 more)although I do own a few outside that range. I don't own a 247 yet, I am waiting for Tim to just send me his copy out of pure kindness Either that or a nice 6.0'ish copy to come around. As far as freeing it, I usually wait until I get a nice little stack to do at once and I am getting about there now. Here are my couple of Adventures outside of that range: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I so love that Adventure 211 that I'd be willing to make a trade: My GL 76 in CGC 9.4 for your Adventure 211 and $8900 cash. What say you? Honestly, though, I just love that book. I'll be looking in SD this summer for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtlasFan Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 A new arrival. You know, I think this issue of SA is one of the rarest to get in decnt grade. It sure was tough finding this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
