PGM GL/GA 85 2 2

[mackenzie999]

Hi everyone...

Recently purchased a home that needs a lot of work, so it's time to dump the collection. Most are CGC keys, but I have a handful of raws that I could use a hand grading and will be posting them over the next few days. Please forgive the cropped interior scans, I'm not trying to hide anything but almost all of them came out that way, sorry.

I've read the PGM guidelines and noticed it suggests a very small scan size, with the option to link to larger scans. Is this still the case? 

Thank you so much for helping! 

Continuing with Green Lantern 85.

Are those creases or tears? hard to tell on all of them

Creases. And thank you for all your grading efforts, I really appreciate it!

I'm not convinced that those aren't production creases, but it's hard to tell without the book in hand.

I'll grade the book though as if they are from handling. 6.5 because other than the creases, this copy is structurally pretty good.

Thanks for sharing.

I kinda feel the same, those creases just seem too odd for the location and the rest of the book looks great

I'll say 6.5 as well just to be safe

That is a common production crease found on that issue. That's a 9.2 if they discount the crease. I believe they do.

I love that issue. That was my first mail order book I received in the mail. Of all places. I was 11, I think. Waited on pins and needles for 2 weeks for it. I still love waiting for the mail. it was also the second issue I purchased when I began collecting again in 2000. Should be a classic cover.

So, if that's true I'll revise my estimate to 8.5. Press to maybe a 9.0.

I don't think that crease can be pressed out. But yeah. The spine creases could be worked on. Great book. I want to buy a SS one at some point. My 86 is SS.
