Deutero Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 (edited) Just got this as part of a larger collection recently. Seems like a fairly nice copy. What grade do you guys think this might get? Thanks in advance Edited July 6, 2023 by Deutero Grade update Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scburdet Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 3.0/3.5 the color breaking subscription crease, ink transfer? around the title, tears, maybe some staple rust, and what seems like significant tanning of the paper are going to be limiting. I'd want to know about the brittleness of the paper between the discoloration & tearing. SuperSt4r and Deutero 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Point Five Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Agree with @FoggyNelson, I think it squeaks out the 4.0. Pretty for the grade; your basic worn-but-solid book. Nice one! Deutero 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grendelbo Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 3.5 and @Point Fivecould be right about the 4.0 but no higher IMO. Thanks for posting. Deutero and Point Five 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1950's war comics Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 3.5 but 4.0 on a good day.... FoggyNelson and Deutero 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowGradeBronze Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 This is a 2.0 at best. I'm out of step with everyone who's posted so far, I know, but nothing in my collection with similar defects grades higher than 2.0 Deutero 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm out of step with everyone who's posted so far, I know, but nothing in my collection with similar defects grades higher than 2.0 I definitely prefer everyone else’s guesstimates so far I appreciate the honest opinion though, especially as it’s in comparison to similar comics you’ve already had graded. I was hoping for a minimum of 3.0 so will have to see how the graders feel when I send it in. I will update this thread when I do get it back.

Deutero Posted July 6, 2023 Author Share Posted July 6, 2023 @FoggyNelson@scburdet@Point Five@grendelbo@1950's war comics@LowGradeBronze Only sent my latest submission in to CGC May so apologies for the delay in updating. Bit of a mixture of opinion on this one between a 2.0 and 4.0, I tempered my expectations and thought a 3.0 was realistic. Didn't get it C&P as it was already a bit fragile. 3.0 (Universal) Cream to Off-White Pages Grader's notes: multiple crease cover breaks color staining to cover tears to cover Thanks for the input everyone grendelbo, Point Five and scburdet 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperSt4r Posted July 8, 2023 Share Posted July 8, 2023 good one. Would‘ve said 3.5 Deutero 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
