Why are there no Marvel Special Edition Star Wars magazines graded/slabbed? 0

[JMSComics]

I looked up online to see if any of the issues of the 1977 "Marvel Special Edition Featuring Star Wars" comic magazines were for sale, graded. I was dissapointed when I didn't see any graded. Then after checking the CGC census, I couldn't even get it to understand the title (page saying "No comics matched the search terms you entered"). I have however noticed some issues of "Marvel Super Special Magazine" graded. So, why does CGC not have any of these 3 star wars issues graded/slabbed?

There are no slabs of those issues because they are treasury editions and measure about 10" x 14". There are no slabs made by any company for tabloid editions, tooling costs would be very high.

My guess is that their sales/marketing team does not see enough demand to create a slab of that size.

They are called Treasury Editions and as others have said, they are bigger than the magazines you have found graded and there is not enough demand to create a case for them.  Those cases would be even more flimsy than the CGC magazine cases. 

That said, CBCS will grade it and seal it in a plastic sleeve. It just doesn't have the protection of a hard case.

People have already answered...magazines CGC will grade and have a holder for. Those treasuries are substantially larger and CGC does not as of yet have a slab for them.

CGC needs to fix their horrible magazine slabs first before they worry about tackling something to contain a treasury sized comic. The magazine ones are flimsy and prone to easy damage when shipped.
