I know the rules say to post one per thread but hopefully this is alright seeing as they are the same

 

Not sure how to make the images smaller which is why I'm linking them instead

 

 

Thanks

On the lower grade, it looks like there used to be a "10" written on which is now removed. How does CGC treat this?

Top one looks like it may have been restored. I see potentially some color touch in the brown logo area and the right edge looks like it may have been trimmed.

 

Other than that I see stress at the top staple, a rounded bottom right front edge two spine ticks by the dialogue balloons and a bump/dent on the back cover that doesn't break color. VF/VF+ so accounting for the "key" bump I'd call it 8.5. Very nice book.

 

The lower grade one appears to have a detached top staple, tap residue/staining, moisture staining, potentially water damage throughout the entire lower interior (staining present in same location on front cover and corresponding location on back cover), page overhang suggests potentially loose centerfold, and "writing" on the front cover.

 

VG-/GVG so 3.0/3.5 leaning more towards 3.0 because of the apparent water damage.

The higher grade one, pretty much has to be graded for resale. It is extremely nice which starts with an assumption that it might have been restored. Really nice book though certainly in the VF range or higher.

that high grade copy is beautiful.

 

a press would help flatten that light crease.

 

VF+ or VF/NM after press is very likely.

It has had no restoration work done at all, just been in the family a long time and well looked after
