farrran Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 Cover detached at top staple. Centerfold detached at bottom staple. Thanks in advance! Galen130 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grebal Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 Looks at least GD plus to me. [2.5] Perhaps a 3.0, if it has a good day and depending how solid/tight it feels despite the two staple issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
makeminemego Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 I'm going to guess @2.5 due to the cover and centerfold detachment and what appears to be rust migration. Pretty clean copy though. REALLY nice color for a lower grade book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farrran Posted June 7, 2016 Author Share Posted June 7, 2016 Thank you. It does have a some rust on bottom staple but it hasn't really affected the pages. With the exception of cover and centerfold book feels tight overall. Would it still be worth the investment to get this graded? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the pin-up page is still in the book (and attached), and you'd like to have the book slabbed, by all means. If you think you would enjoy it more out of the slab, then don't. Good luck with it.

KryptoMayor Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 I also noticed subscription crease and stain on lower back cover. I'm going to say 2.5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spyder! Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 2.5 for sure, might get a 3.0 on a good day. Such a classic book. Makes me happy to see every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grebal Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 As a reference, I realized I have comparable copy of this book in 3.0 according to another unname-able Voldy company. Yours looks a bit nicer, but don't know status of the encased 3.0's staple color or attached status in/out. If that image is violation of rules just let me know and I'll delete this reply.
