PGM My Grail - Fantastic Four 48!
3 3

19 posts in this topic

I’m a massive Silver Surfer fan and this has been at the top of my want list for a long time! I can’t believe I’ve actually got it, I’m literally bouncing off the walls with excitement at the moment :whee:

 

It’s fairly worn and the cover is faded but  I’ll definitely be sending it in, what grade do you guys reckon it might get?

 

Thanks in advance.

For a normal comic I would give it a 3.5 grade with the chipping, color distortion on the cover, and the corner creases on the front cover. However, this book is from the 60s marvel chipping era which actually did graded with leniency (most of the time). With that in mind, I would 4.5-5.0, solid book! Congrats!

Thanks for sharing. Congratulations. It's been a while since I've been really excited over acquiring a new book.

 This is so exciting ...I don't know anybody who's not dreaming of owning this book......I'm still dreaming of my Holy Grail......as long as I'm dreaming right now ..I'll dream you get a 5.0.......

p.s.  please let us know how it turns out a year from now.

Thanks!

Out of interest what’s your holy grail?

I’m going to be sending in about 15 comics in the next couple weeks and I’ve posted a few of them on this sub. When they eventually come back to me I’ll definitely update my posts and let people know how the did.

I don't see anyone mentioning it, but can anyone educate me on what version of FF48 this is? I see "10d" where it usually says 12¢. I searched really quickly, but I can't find any examples, and it certainly looks like it's as it was printed that way

Pence copy.

UK edition.

There are many threads about them. Google "CGC UK editions."

Here's probably the best -

Thanks. That was my first though, but it hasn't been uploaded to comicspriceguide.com. I re-searched and there are a lot of gaps in their UK FF list. I would never have guess issue 48 would be one of them. It's not like anyone cares about this book or anything.

I’m a UK based collector and I also use comicspriceguide.com.

There are loads of comics that they don’t show as having UK price variants. Just yesterday I was adding some Bronze Age Avengers Issues with Silver Surfer appearances. My issues are a mix of UK and US prices, but they don’t show any UK price variants. I just make a note on the individual comic edit sayings it’s a UK price.

I’ve also posted some other SA UK price variants on this forum like ASM #4 and FF #6.
