PGM Captain America #1 (1941)

I was thinking of putting these together and submitting.

From what I understand it would get a green label because the pieces would be married.  And from what I've heard the highest a detached cover book can get is a 4.0.

What do you think it would come back as, and should I send them slabbed and let them marry it(I'm not even sure they do that), or should I crack out and send it assembled together.  

I'll post pics of slabbed and raw, and graders notes, thanks.

Ok, I think that's all the pics.   I'm also interested in and pro's/cons of combining or not combining.   I'm not selling, so it I do submit, it would be for insurance purposes and curiosity.  I haven't done a PGM post before, so if you need more info just let me know.

 

Thanks!

Not sure if it can get a 4.0, but it would definitely get a green label (qualified). I have a Bat 1 with the coverst still attached together but are detached from the book itself and it got a 2.5.

I would join those up in a heartbeat. Very cool pieces!

agreed. I believe it would get a 2.5/3.0 tops and a Green label....

I would keep these as is.  Physically marrying them isn't much unless it just bothers you.  And the Kirby sig on a Cap 1 is pretty sweet so why hide it.  They are now graded so you have insurance right there, albeit at your purchase price most likely.  Save about $300 on grading fees, or more which is likely the premium you'd get if any at all.

Since your keeping em, I'd leave as is as well.  Love the Jack Kirby signature if it is really authentic.  And both are in blue labels so that's always a plus.

I agree with ft88 and DK, keep them as is....the coverless copy really looks great showing the splash page, presents like a cover itself. And having them side by side is a very impressive display.

Since the paper is gone at both staples, the cover won't be able to be attached so a 3.0 Green detached?

Congrat's on the pairing btw, it's a book I'd love to own (great PQ).

Nice books! I say crack em out and play with pieces and parts...

[AnkurJ]

3.0

[Comicdey]

Leave as a pair. You get to see more.  Probably 3.0 cgc qualified combine for valuation 

[Kalel38]

2.0 to 3.0.. Sensational score

+1 for leave them as is. This way you get to enjoy the cover and the splash with the Kirby sig. If you decide to part with them some day, sell them together, or marry them then, based on the advise of a trusted expert dealer.
