51Bulldog Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 What would you grade this at? I stopped collecting about 25 years ago and this is the oldest book in my collection. The whole slabbing of books is new to me so what would be your thoughts on sending it in. I have no plans on ever getting rid of it, would be just to preserve it for myself. Thanks for looking.

comicginger1789 Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 I’d grade it 4.5-5.0. Solid looking but with general wrinkling and wear here and there. If for yourself go ahead and grade it. Otherwise I wouldnt bother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spawn1709 Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Looks about a 6.0 to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gardner Broome Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 I’m at 4.5. Personally, I would not certify this comic because the process to do so would likely cost just about as much as the book is worth. A Mylar bag and a couple of backing boards will preserve the book just as well as it being encapsulated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Lions Den Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 I'm in the 4.5 - 5.0 grade range as well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
