wpitt74 Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Have a copy of Superman 182 that I was stoked to find for $5 (still am) but when I got it home, found out that the middle page has come completely off the staples and a couple of pages behind it have come loose from the bottom staple. When it comes to restoration, can this be fixed? Is it worth grading? Thanks for looking! 1950's war comics, FoggyNelson and Galen130 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
10centcomics Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 A detached centerfold on an otherwise perfect book will knock it down to 7.0 Since your book has some additional pieces loose, it would grade somewhere below that. I'd keep it as a nice presenting reading copy. Detached pages can be fixed via restoration but on a non-key, relatively common book like this, it will lower the value even more. Similar story with grading, since it's a mid-grade non-key, it won't be worth the effort unless for some reason you really want it to be in a slab. Hope this was helpful. wpitt74 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Galen130 Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 3.5. Too bad about the page separation. Not worth restoring...IMO. wpitt74 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
