PGM Archie's Girls: Betty and Veronica #9 (1953) 0

[Funky Monkey Comics]

Hey guys, picked this one up on the cheap.  It is a beater copy, but it presents well.  The centerfold is detached at both staples.  What are your opinions on the grade?  Thank you!

Sweet book!

Good minus? Not sure what CGC would say with a detached centerfold. But not worth slabbing I think. Great reader copy!

Detached cf is an easy, non-restorative fix on this, as simple as deftly opening the staple blades, replacing the cf over them, pushing the paper from the centerfold, smoothing it down around the staple blades, and then closing the staples to hold the paper. It looks like the typical golden age VG once the cf is intact.
