jlwillms Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 (edited) My daughter and I are going through my husbands comics and come to realize how meticulous he kept his collection. We do not understand the grading/pricing tiers and are wondering if someone might offer their opinion on if we should send it to be graded. Many of these pictures are within the protective covering because we are a little afraid to "ruin" these comics. I did post a couple out of the bag per recommendation from a member. Thank you in advance for your time Edited May 10, 2021 by jlwillms change title; wording Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHASEnBLUE Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 I sold a 9.0 slab a few years back... hitting myself since. Sent one to get c&p but I'll be lucky if it ends up being a six or six five - wishful thinking since it's my last one. Funnybooks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funnybooks Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 The pictures are coming in quite small so hard to see detail....from what I can gather, the book could definitely use a press and clean to improve the appearance and grade... It seems to be in the VF+ to VF/NM+ range...most of the defects seem to be on the back cover? Can you take better pics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlwillms Posted May 12, 2021 Author Share Posted May 12, 2021 Thank you for your response. I think we will take new pictures and repost as it appears I made a mistake asking for an opinion with these pictures. I know that we have a lot to learn.

We do have fun too...not to offend the OP. If you have a high resolution scanner, that will help as well. Just make sure you have clean hands before removing the book from the bag...don’t want inadvertent fingerprint dirt/grease. Funnybooks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
