Philiboy Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 (edited) Hello! another one of my favourite books that I want to get graded and looking to see what you all think of the condition first. no tears or rips inside the book and all staples are intact. I think a press will definitely help this one out. Maybe a 5.5- 6.5? Dang - this IPhone sux at saving pictures! Sorry for the sideway pics!! Please share your thoughts. thank you Edited September 21, 2021 by Philiboy Galen130 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
10centcomics Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 I don't think a press really helps this book, the major flaws are color breaking wear and tear that you generally see in VG books. There is also major staining and some staple rust migration on the back cover which a press does not help with either. Overall, I'd grade this around VG (4.0).

universal soldier Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 After seeing the back, I'm thinking 3.5 Funnybooks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galen130 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Yikes!!! The stains and/or migration around the staples…no better than 3.5. IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grendelbo Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 3.0 A press may get a 3.5 because the front presents nicely. On 9/20/2021 at 10:35 PM, Philiboy said: Sorry for the sideway pics!!
