gadzukes Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 (edited) Pretty nice copy except for a 1" split at the top of spine & a little foxing on the back cover. Edited August 11, 2021 by gadzukes Galen130 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flashlites Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 I have taken a break from grading for months, since the end of the last March Madness contest. So I'm a bit rusty but here goes - I think the highest grade it could get would be a 4.5 going by the grading guide, but for me with the little tears on the leading edge and taking into consideration everything else I would grade it at 3.5. maybe a 4.0. Very nice key book to have in any condition though! (I'm jealous) Thanks for sharing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glassman10 Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 I'm having trouble with the presentations between two of the photos. The first one doesn't show the same abrasion as does the other around the upper left hand quadrant. One makes it appear far worse than the other. I'm hovering at a 3.5 but it could get worse. There appears to be a stain on the back on the same corner as the abrasion but it's difficult to read. It extends down to the letter "S" in "Surfer". That suggests water damage all the way through the comic at the corner. The rippling on the cover at the spine suggests to me that it's close to coming off a good deal more. It has a color break running much of the cover length right near the spine. How's the interior? Water stains? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funnybooks Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 4.0 due mostly to foxing and it presents nicer than a typical 3.5 imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galen130 Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 That’s a lot of foxing...IMO. 4.0 at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, now that I look back at it....... it's not "a little foxing" I'm glad the front cover doesn't have it.
