namisgr Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 So how does anyone come up with grades for these two, not having them in hand and so not knowing whether a spine is split or there's really a certain edge tear? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I can assure you that if there were any notes on the label, such as 'cover detached' or 'centerfold detached', I would tell you. I would also comment on any kind of major flaw that wasn't visible in the scan, like spine is split 3/4 of the way up the book. Although still very important, I wouldn't be describing any minor flaws like 1/2" tear on right side, 1" spine split at top, etc... The saving grace will always be that you all are going off the same scan and the same information that I am giving you. So, it should still be considered an even playing field. With all of that being said, you still can't grade a book from a scan. To properly grade, you have to have the book in hand. In this case, this is just an exercise of fun. 1950's war comics, greggy, FoggyNelson and 1 other 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The worst part is not knowing book from case. But as you say, we're all looking at the same pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
