Popular Post Bat34 Posted September 22, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted September 22, 2018 Hi everyone, please let me know your thoughts, this is my first PGM submission. Book is tight and supple, with really nice gloss. There is slight glare from my light; notably the white on fc under the "BA" and edge of the Bat logo on the left, and under the "AN" on the right. The spine is intact, what looks to be a small chip on left fc by the DC logo. I also have another copy which has printer registration errors; you can see a bit of that on this one also, with the small speck by the water tower on right (black ink) and inside the B in the logo (red). Thank you! F For Fake, RockMyAmadeus, KobaltDog and 2 others 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very hard to tell for sure from the picture, but is there an extra top staple, inside or out? Looks like an extra indent up top..

Hi thanks - if you mean the area to the left of the DC logo, that's the small chip I referred to above. Very small.

flashlites Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 Such a treat to see a Golden Age book in this condition! Obviously taken care of through the years. I would grade it at 8.5 but with the bump it could go up to a 9. Thanks for sharing it with us!!! Bat34 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said 8.5 mainly the spine and edge wear. c-b spine ticks near staples, additional spine wear near middle, front lower edge and lrc slight abrading or edge-flecks. Beautiful book though and would likely get a bump or two even up to 9.2 kav 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
