Deutero Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 Another Cap pick up from today. Also the 2nd appearance of Kraven the Hunter. Highly unlikely I’d get this one slabbed but curious to know what grade you guys think this is and how much of a grade deduction due to the cover? Thanks in advance!

scburdet Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 I don't have a good calibration for pieces missing from the covers. I think the max for this (ignoring the size) is 3.5. I'm going with 3.0±0.5 with a huge asterisk for me not knowing anything. Deutero 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzutak Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 Even if there was no piece missing, the color-breaking wear and oxidation would justify a condition grade in the 4.5~5.0 range. If you account for the large chunk out, you're looking at a grade of 1.8. This is not a pristine copy, and that is not a small or insignificant piece. A nifty book, even with its defects. grendelbo and Deutero 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haljordanfan Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 1.8 for me. Deutero 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grendelbo Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Yeah, I was thinking 2.0 max and likely 1.8. Thanks for sharing. Deutero 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
