Mr Vapors Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 (edited) Was wondering if I could get some opinions on the comics as far as the grade goes. Just wondering how much impact the cutout on the back cover makes. Edited December 14, 2021 by Mr Vapors Galen130 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comicginger1789 Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 Touch one. Could be deemed incomplete with that much of a piece missing. So a 0.5 would not surprise me. Now since it is the back, I think you could get away with a 1.8 here and it would be one of the nicest presenting 1.8's around. grendelbo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grendelbo Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 The missing piece out of the back cover isn't big enough IMO to warrant an 0.5. Likely 1.8-2.0. Thanks for sharing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randall Ries Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 You know, if I could time travel, I wouldn't go back in time to stop Hitler or John Wilkes Booth. I wouldn't go to see the Declaration of Independence signed or prevent The Archies from recording. No. I would go back in time and prevent all these kids from cutting out those little forms so they could get x-ray specs. Plus save them from being disappointed when they showed up and found they didn't work at all. Tough Noogies, kiddies. It's gonna take a LOT more than x-ray specs to see the goodies. Prepare for a LOT of disappointment as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wondering how much impact the cutout on the back cover makes. The missing piece is the result of a coupon being cut from the Honor House ad on the inside back cover. If CGC remains consistent with past practice, the book should receive a Universal Grade of 1.0 FR. with a notation of "Coupon missing from back cover" (and possibly a second notation of being "INCOMPLETE"). This being said, there are examples of higher grades being awarded to certain pedigreed copies and Golden Age mega-keys. One justice for the plebs (plebians), and a much less harsh justice for the elites. Mars76, grendelbo and KCOComics 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone did there homework 😁 I'm going with 1.0 too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my favorite covers and this one presents really well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
