Qua-Brot Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 (edited) The cover is detached, spine split 4" at bottom, 1" at top. Water staining upper left quadrant of cover and interior, rust and migration at top staple (not bottom staple). Upper right corner chewed off diminishing through book until last few pages and back cover not chewed. Writing on cover, in "O"s of Action and Comics, and on Gorillas nose. 2 bug holes in back cover upper right (was a cocoon attached there, still some silk). Centerfold nicely attached. Has nice supple cream pages, don't see anything else missing, a tear here and there but nothing major. What say thou, CGC Board Mind?

Chief1332 Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 Well loved, and then forgotten. Hoping you pull a 2.0. Any plans for making it look a bit nicer, or leaving as is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any plans for making it look a bit nicer, or leaving as is? I am planning on press and clean, and then grading it. I read the superman story - amazing that it is so corny and simple, and had to remind myself that the reason they had to explain so much about Superman was that this is his 6th appearance!!! He wasn't part of popular culture yet. Absolutely mindblowing. Chief1332 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
