mtlevy1 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Presents well in the photo but is that a sub crease running down the middle of the book? Tim E 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Dositheus Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 That center crease unfortunately is going to have a large influence on the grade. Without being able to see for certain how long it is, I have a hard time going higher than 6.5. Tim E 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primetime Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 (edited) FN+ 6.5 very nice spine. Love the April 14 arrival date upper left. Based on these pics alone, the sub crease appears to only slightly break color in the center of the book and doesn’t appear to have any damage down the entire middle of cover. A severe, color breaking crease down the entire middle of this copy, would put it at 4.0 for me.

1950's war comics Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 the sub crease = an automatic CGC 4.5 but still a nice key!! worth grading if you have a batch to send in Tim E and FoggyNelson 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim E Posted December 15, 2020 Author Share Posted December 15, 2020 The crease runs from just under the r and down to the edge of the yellow. I’m not sure if a press would help or if it would get hit as hard as a full sub crease. I appreciate the input on my first post!

Maybe not all the way to 4.5, but at least a possible reduction to the 5.0 area due to it. Tim E 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hibou Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 I'm jumping in late and haven't seen any further posts after the initial one, but I'll say a 6.5. I don't think a press would bump it any... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you get it pressed? It didn't look like a sub crease to me, only a small cbc in the middle... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
