Avengers #1---Poor Amateur Restoraton-hoping for advice and a possible grade
3 3

9 posts in this topic

Hello I first want to say I thought very hard about if I should post this here or on the 'hey bud can you spare a grade" forum, in the end . all things considered I thought this would be the best place to post this particular thread.  If you guys read this and think I'm posting in the wrong forum please let me know and I will immediately delete it and repost it in the "hey bud can you spare a grade" forum

 

anyways I have an  Avengers #1 here,  and this comic has been restored and in my opinion it's a very poor amateur restoration job(although I must admit I don't know a lot about restoration)

to me it is very obvious there is a lot of color touch along the spine and pieces have been added on the back cover.

 

Basically what I'm hoping for is,  could you guys please look at these pictures and give me your best estimate on a possible grade and I would love to hear any opinions on the restoration

what all do you see has been done restoration wise to this comic?

In your opinion how poor is the restoration done on this comic book?

And ultimately could you please give some kind of rough estimate on a grade?

 

Truly thank you so much to anyone who replies

This belongs in the PGM sub-forum, for sure. No need to delete. @CGC Mike, can you move it please?

I agree with zzutak on this one.  Apparent FR/GD 1.5.  Very possibly extensive amateur restoration rating, however, as there is a ton of color touch on the front of the book.

Apparent 1.5. Book looks trimmed too.

Thanks for sharing.

All this. Still desirable even in this condition though, and good eye appeal for the low grade.
