marf Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 (edited) The front cover and back page are detached. Should the detached cover/back be repaired (re-attached)? I think it would be considered an alteration (purple?) for CGC? Please grade let me know if a clean and press can and should be done as well as any repair advice or if its best to leave as is. Thanks! Edited Sunday at 12:01 AM by marf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FoggyNelson Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Great key even in low grade like this one , worthy of a submission to make it easier to sell someday if it is graded👍‼️ 1950's war comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowGradeBronze Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 1.8 to 2.0 and I would be very wary of having anything done to it. Might improve the look but not the grade, so not worth the risk imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marf Posted January 16, 2023 Author Share Posted January 16, 2023 (edited) Thanks for the great advice. So no to a CNP but get it graded Edited January 16, 2023 by marf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grendelbo Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 1.8/2.0 Fix it with archival tape. It won't be restoration and it won't affect the grade. Or just leave it be. Thanks for sharing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
