gadzukes Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 (edited) The CF is detached at the top staple, otherwise everything is as you see it here. I've owned a couple of these thru the years and they were always in much worse shape than this one. These are so tough to find in grade. A press will make this look a lot nicer I think.

gadzukes Posted April 6, 2022 Author Share Posted April 6, 2022 Coming back as a 4.5. That's the good news. The grader's notes say "CF is detached". Hmmmm..... when I sent it in the cf was only detached at the top staple. grendelbo, MrRoboto and Galen130 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does CGC notate detached at top/bottom staple if it is only one spot? Or do they just state detached even if it is still partially attached? Just asking as maybe detached is their go to wording regardless of whether it is full or partial detachment. Or maybe they messed up...or maybe it got popped during shipping. Or maybe it was popped and you missed? I know I have looked at a book before and the staples were there but when lifted the page they were not holding anything...despite looking clearly attached (plus the page was wedged in well and gave the illusion it was in place.

To detach a centerfold via a pressing, you would have to be a cross between a gorilla and an elephant. grendelbo and Funnybooks 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever it is, it's awesome and would make a great monster for a Scooby comic. Edited April 7, 2022 by gadzukes grendelbo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
