Galen130 Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 Besides a clean and press, the biggest issue I see with this one are the production(?) wrinkles/creases on the back cover. What say you??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candygramformongo Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 I'm thinking 8.0/8.5 now and solidly 8.5 after the C/P. Assuming those wrinkles are production.....*fingers crossed* grendelbo, MAR1979 and Galen130 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAR1979 Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 (edited) Given the actual sales (not asking price) the past year, if not a sure thing 9.8 hardly seems worth grading costs. Edited November 4, 2021 by MAR1979 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not looking to get it graded...I'm done with all that. I'd like to have estimates if I list it for sale raw in the threads. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zegeroth Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 I’ll go 6.0. Given the color rub and paper quality, i don’t think that wrinkle is production. Galen130 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Am The Answer! Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 The Answer is: 8.5 Galen130 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramrodcar Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 My take is 8.0ish, back cover appears to be bindery defects which objectively doesn't hurt the grade but subjectively (IMO) affects the desirability. At least it's on the back cover! Galen130 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2Sunny Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 (edited) On 10/21/2021 at 9:28 AM, Jennifer F. said: Good morning, I had our graders take a look and they advised that this most likely would be considered a printer's crease which is a common manufacturing defect on books from that time period. It can have little to no effect on the final grade, depending on the size, number of creases and severity as well as the condition of the rest of the book. It can also still receive a blue Universal label as long as there are no other defects that require a qualified label. If you have any other questions, please let us know. Thank you! I have several comics with a similar crease. I went to the Ask CGC forum and got the above answer from a CGC rep. regarding the crease below. If I was a buyer looking on Ebay I'd be happy if you called that an 8.0 - 8.5 thinking you are not trying to oversell or overgrade.
