JDubeCT Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 (edited) EDIT: Ok, so this message will be on each of my posts - sorry was doing it from my phone last night which ended up looking like ... so, my goal here is 2 fold - 1st i was looking to test my grading skills; 2nd i was looking for peoples thoughts on pressing these (via CGC vendor) prior to grading; whether you think it will make a difference worth the costs or not... I was going to put my grades up after they had been reviewed a few times but have decided just to put it in the posts... RE: New Mutants 98 - my grade is 8.5 (number of stress lines combine with creasing even though it is not color breaking) - cover is flat but has a few small spine stress marks w/color break; I identified 2 non-color breaking creases - corners are not too bad; some rounding - pages are white to off-white - back cover seems to be in similar shape as the front New pics below: https://www.icloud.com/sharedalbum/#B0SG4TcsmGxhdoe EDIT 2: As requested on another post of mine I will try and attach the photos here for those who dont want to click links ==== original message ==== Non color beak crease https://share.icloud.com/photos/0Au7hzINBBsvGslnevn9aZ48Q#Home Edited September 22, 2020 by JDubeCT updating info and adding more pictures Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comicginger1789 Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 No back cover pic? Seems 9.0+ but need a back cover pic to really hone in on a grade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
