scburdet Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 (edited) A lot more people hanging out here on a holiday than I would have guessed. I'm down to 4 (more or less) square bound books in my pile of CGC candidates. Here's Silver Surfer 3. It has decent eye appeal except there are spots here and there in the red. I guess those are color rubs, but it doesn't look like the typical ones on other books. IDK if this could be something else? Pretty sure it's not staining of any kind.

marvelmaniac Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 Blunted corners w/color breaking creases, edge wear w/color breaking creases, moderate color rub over most of the cover, severe color rub/color breaking crease in the center of the front cover, rusted staples w/slight rust migration on the lower staple, minor to moderate spine stress, slight spine roll. IMO... 5.0 VERY GOOD/FINE (VG/FN): Back to Top An above-average but well used comic book. An accumulation of bindery/printing defects is allowed. Minor to moderate cover wear apparent, with minor to moderate creases and/or dimples. Inks have moderate to low reflectivity. Blunted corners are increasingly common, as is minor to moderate staining, discoloration, and/or foxing. Stamped or inked arrival dates may be present. A minor to moderate spine roll is allowed. A spine split of up to 1/2" may be present. Staples may show minor discoloration. Minor staple tears and minor stress lines may also be present, as well as minor rust migration. Paper is tan to brown with no signs of brittleness. Centerfold may be loose. Minor interior tears may also be present. 4.5 VERY GOOD+ (VG): Back to Top Fits the criteria for Very Good but with an additional virtue or small accumulation of virtues that improves the book's appearance by a perceptible amount. scburdet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scburdet Posted June 29, 2023 Author Share Posted June 29, 2023 Please with this. I was worried about the scratch on the FC that is mentioned in the notes. Everyone was around the CGC grade, but a wider range than other books from this batch Mars76, Galen130 and grendelbo 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
