meself Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 (edited) Besides the obvious wear/tear/dirt this comic has had 3 extra staples added to just above the top staple, God only knows why. It looks like the original top staple is still in place? but hard to see . I am interested to hear your opinions especially on how much the extra staples lower the grade. All comments appreciated.

grendelbo Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 3.0 Extra staples would be noted on the label. meself 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galen130 Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 Depends on how you want the book to present…removing the staples will obviously leave noticeable holes, but will negate a green label. It’s a toss up, but ultimately it’s in the eyes of the collector. 4.0. 👍 meself 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
