lowball Posted March 30, 2023 Share Posted March 30, 2023 (edited) Newbie here and just curious if there is a complete list of full size magazines that CGC will grade? Their site lists a few titles but doesn't say if there are any restrictions. Just curious if any magazine can be sent in. Thanks!

Administrator CGC Mike Posted March 30, 2023 Administrator Share Posted March 30, 2023 This might be of some help. CGC Magazines Dimension Requirements CGC grades most magazines that fit within the following dimensions: 11-1/2” tall x 8-7/8” wide x 1/2” thick. Magazines that are larger than these dimensions cannot be certified, as they will not fit in the CGC Magazines holder. In addition, magazines with severe overhangs, hard covers or jeweled covers cannot be encapsulated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

revat Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 It is also possible that certain content might prohibit grading. if you think it might be questionable, check first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm mostly wondering what is out there that is graded form a collecting standpoint. I probably won't personally get any magazines graded. I only just realized that CGC grades some full sized magazines Edited March 31, 2023 by lowball Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mintcomics1 Posted April 6, 2023 Share Posted April 6, 2023 CGC grades standard size magazines, but will not certify oversized comic mags such as Treasury editions. Imagine the size of that slab! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
