What should I do? ASM #4 0

[Ahmadisme]

So this ASM #4 has a mismatched back cover taped on to it. The original had been cut off ages ago.

My question is, should I remove the taped on back cover?

Would that improve the grade and/or ensure a blue label?

Or would it get a blue label as is?

Any advice would be appreciated.

Others may have direct experience with this, but here’s my potentially flawed understanding: as is, it would be a green qualified label. Remove it and you’re looking at a 0.5 blue. 

Edit: so, if you’re looking to sell, I would not slab it. To paraphrase the poet laureate of daytime 70’s TV:

Don't waste your money getting it graded.

Both good answers. Are you selling it or keeping it for yourself?

Thanks for the responses. I'm planning on selling it.

Yeah thats not even the right back cover,not sure if thats what you meant by mismatched or just that it was added, but its the wrong back, so it would get a .5 Green or .5 Blue likely as an incomplete book either way so it would be worth more without that back cover on it,since its wrong.

 Hope that helps some too. This an ASM 4 correct back cover(insides) are different and the add says 1964 on your back, it should say 1963 Wallace...
