Opinions Wanted ! 0

[Chicago Boy]

No luck in the other forum so “hello” GA collectors ! 

I have a GA book that was bound at one time and presents with the following:

--Binder holes along the spine side of the pages

--Outer edge trimmed to fit in volume (some right up to artwork however AW is not affected)

-- Each page has been separated 

-- No CF or FC

--Most of Back cover is present

Opinions as to how this COULD POTENTIALLY  grade out between a NG and a 0.5 ?  I wouldn't ask if the back cover was not  present   Thanks everyone

You know the book well Woo-Woo   it took me 8 months to realize it came  with a back cover. Wasn’t in the description but in the pics — if it was mentioned to me by a boardie before this I wasn’t paying attention. #pleasantlysuprised.

It’ a .5 if you have front or back cover for it.

its a solid 2.0 coverless with back cover to me if it was mine  But it would only be a .5 cgc  I would have each page graded than you would have 32 pages and a back cover ( oop's forgot no the centerfold ) so 30 pgs

Ha !  Now I’m back where I started 

[rjpb]

NG 

 

[Mr. Lady Luck]

My honest guess is that it would be NG.

[Spyder!]

I would think this would be a .5

I have an AF15 that is missing back cover, missing 1st wrap and missing CF and is in a blue label .5

Thanks Spyder for the “real life “ example.  I’m guessing others can provide examples to contradict that as we can all point to inconsistencies with grading at times. I really appreciate the example though of a book in your possession. Opinions with or without examples still wanted. Will update the thread once I get the book back

Need more Opinions !  Don't make me PM you

[thunsicker]

I think it could survive any of those defects and get a .5, but all of them?  I’d guess NG.
