ChrispyC66 Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 Hi grading aficionados, I’m interested in your potential grades for both covers on this Batman 55. Let me know if you have any questions. I will add that the interior page range from off-white to cream to off-white in color. The dot shaped void to the right of the N in logo on the outer appeared to be very old dry sticker residue that was removed. The grey circular mark in the Batman logo on the inner front cover appears to possibly and ink dot and it is visible on the inside cover but not the splash page. Thanks for looking. Cheers! First two images are high-res scans of the outer cover. The remaining images are the outer cover photos The next images are pics of the inner cover These images are pics of the interior of the book the last photos were taken before pressing. They are meant to show the tanning on the inside of cover 2 as compared to cover 1. Any corner bend were removed during pressing. grendelbo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scburdet Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 Outer 5.5/6.0 (considering it's GA). Inside, more like 4.0/4.5 b/c that tanning looks dark. That seems like some significant spotting along that inside shot. That might make the overall grade trend a little lower than the outer cover, but IDK. On some level it doesn't matter b/c this is such a unique book. ChrispyC66 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grendelbo Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 5.5 more or less. 6.5/4.5. Thanks for posting. Neat book. ChrispyC66 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowGradeBronze Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 I'm at 5.5 outer and 4.0 inner (including the GA bump) and this really shows how contact with the pages has caused the tanning to the inner cover! Weren't golden age colours fab? They really pop! Nice book, thanks for sharing! ChrispyC66 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mars76 Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 6.0 for the outer cover and 6.0 for the inner cover. If the inside cover wasnt so tan I would've said 8.0. ChrispyC66 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
