This one is tough for me to grade. The back presents really well. The cover has those cb creases along one side and the spine is rough.

 

I will go with a 4.5 but wouldn't fall off my chair if a 5.0.

would hope for a CGC 4.0 grade if submitted and anything more is an extra bonus !!

[oakman29]

Agreed. 4.0

[Bomber-Bob]

I'm also at the 4.5/5.0 opinion. Lots of little flaws but nothing major. To me this is a classic VG+.

CGC tends to be lenient on a nice book in this range so I can see a 5.0 .I just hope the staples are firmly attached. The book has great eye appeal. Good Luck !

The staples are my concern as well. If they're snug (and shiney) I'd quickly give it a 4.5. The back cover is real nice. If the staple area is loose then 4.0 (with a CVA sticker, maybe)...... GOD BLESS....

Thank goodness the staples are super snug, no issues at all.

4.0 to 4.5

 

I'll also add that I disagree with you about the pressing comment.A press will help just about *any* book by removing light surface indentations, squaring up corners and so on.

 

Certain larger flaws like the tear on the spine would be less of an eyesore if the book were to be pressed....the tear would no longer be so readily evident; you would not have a piece of paper jutting out of the spine.

 

Aesthetic improvements like that do add up.

 

 

I wouldn't expect much of a grade bump on this book if it were to be pressed but I think it would be more likely to come back a .5 grade higher than if it were subbed for grading, as is.

 

If pressed, I'd expect a 4.5 with an outside chance at 5.0.

Your agenda to sell your pressing services via these PGM threads is becoming annoying. Please go away.

I agree 4.0.
