Kevin... Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 (edited) Howdy, I am debating sending off to get graded. It’s complete and the pages are still supple. Tape along the spine and on the back where it was ripped. Thanks for your thoughts! Edited February 8, 2018 by Kevin... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badback83 Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 I think 1.0 would be about right. Definitely has decent eye appeal for a low grade example IMO. Kevin... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1Cool Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 If the cover is still attached and the tape is secondary I'd guess 1.5 but it could easily be a 1.0 Kevin... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1950's war comics Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 I would send that off to CGC to get graded no matter what because it is a major key, it will look much nicer in the new slab, and the slab will keep it safe.... and maybe they will give you a first appearance KEY bump to 1.5 FoggyNelson, Lucky Baru and Kevin... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdean2437 Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 Is that tape holding the spine together? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyFish Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 Yup I agree-- I'm not much for slabbing (yes I know where we are) but this one would benefit from it. I'd put it in the 1.0-1.5 range too. Kevin... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still great book, i think lower graders are really about to shoot up in value (have already but more) Kevin... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mysterymachine Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 I can't see a book with that much tape being any higher than 1.0 but I could be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
