Skunkboy Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 Ahhh, this cover . Picked this up at a local show - book presents really well, but sadly there are not one, but two spine splits. FC split is prob about 1" to 1.5", BC split comes down a good 2" if not a little more. Would love any feedback - thanks! Galen130 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sevans1979 Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 2.5-2.0 IMO. It looks like a nice copy but the spine splits will hold it down. Overstreet guide say you can have a spine split from 1 1/2” in 2.5 to 2” in the 2.0 range. But then again I’m not a professional grader but that’s my conservative answer. Sweet book!

1950's war comics Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 (edited) i would call this one G/VG without giving it a numerical grade Edited November 12, 2021 by 1950's war comics Skunkboy and sevans1979 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FFB Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 Between the creasing and spine splits, you're looking at about a G/VG 3.0. Skunkboy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoggyNelson Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Agree with 3.0 Skunkboy and 1950's war comics 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNiPER Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 3.0 I would think CGC might be slightly more lenient on spine splits on these glued on covers cause of the nature of how easy it is to tear when opening the cover under normal handling compared to regular stapled comics imho, could be wrong though😊 Skunkboy and The Lions Den 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The size of the split makes a huge difference. This one should fall somewhere in the 3.0 - 3.5 range, IMO... Skunkboy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
