JohnInMke Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 (edited) This is my first submission here (I'm a little nervous). It's a Silver Age Fantastic Four 61 with Kirby drawn Sandman. The book appears to have been pressed before I purchased it several years back. My low end estimate is Spoiler 9.0 My high end estimate is Spoiler 9.4 Clean copy. Edges look very nice for a Silver book. Tiny wave near the spine causing some reflectivity (not wear) back at the camera. Minor top edge stress Tight spine without any noticeable color breaking stress lines A flat back, but whose color is no longer white Many thanks for looking!

theCapraAegagrus Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 7.5 IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galen130 Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 Sorry, but this one is below a 9.0 IMO. The FC upper page edge creasing is usually not a good sign, especially with any other noticeable defects. Of course, I'm no expert...just some guy acting like it. 8.0/8.5 JohnInMke 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
