Should I have this graded? 

[revat]

If you want to and can afford then yes absolutely 

[theCapraAegagrus]

IMO, no.

What he said. ^^^^^

Just so you are aware, that is a copy of X-Men #1C from 1991, 1 of 5 different X-Men 1 covers used.

This book actually set a sales record (which was/is in the Guinness Book of World Records), this book (all 5 variants combined) sold 8,186,500 copies in 1991 and the book is valued at less than $10.00 unless the book is a NM/MT 9.8 (which yours is not, sorry) which is valued at approx. $70.00, a NM+ 9.6 is valued at less than 1/2 the value of a 9.8.

IMO, place it in a Mylite with an Acid Free Board and enjoy it as is or if you are looking to display the book buy a UV protected frame from BCW like this...

There is no financial sense to having it graded, but if it has significant sentimental value and you have $100 you don't have any need for, why not. 

I'd invest a dollar and put it in mylar

No, that's actually X-Men 1 (Special Collectors Edition) AKA X-Men #1E.

But still not worth grading.

No.

You are absolutely correct.

It would probably be cheaper and faster to just buy a high grade slab from eBay and be done with it,

If you're even reading this thread anymore, apparently all the no's you got crushed you.
