Please Grade My Heavy Metal Magazine (04/1977) #1

Looks like a reading crease down the left hand side of the front cover. One small dog ear on the back bottom corner, Sub card intact!

 

Thanks to all the great ppl in this sub, you rock

The reading crease is the rub here...full length, and the color break is blatant. Technically speaking, I don't think Overstreet grading standards would put that book above a 4.5'ish strictly because of the full length cb crease. I've seen some other discussion here about books with full length subscription creases achieving 5.5s, but I can't imagine it going higher than that. Shame, because I don't see too much else wrong with it. But, just going by that crease...I'm splitting the difference at VG/FN 5.0.

Ya I'm hearing 5.0-6.0, its such a shame about the reading crease, the book is quite nice over wise.
