meself Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 PGM Superman and Spiderman Treasury Edition Just found this after being stored for years somewhere in my collection. Actually unread so in decent condition in that respect but I would say discoloured/tan pages being the main distraction. All comments welcome ps....having trouble now getting a new clean polly bag and backing board for just ONE of these Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marvelmaniac Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 All I see is what appears to be a tiny ding at the lower right corner with slight color loss and some minor foxing/discoloration of the rear cover. IMO, you are in the NM 9.4 range. 9.4 NEAR MINT (NM): Back to TopNearly perfect with only minor imperfections that keep it from the next higher grade. Subtle bindery/printing defects are allowed. Bindery tears must be less than 1/16" on Silver Age and later books, although on Golden Age books bindery tears of up to 1/4" have been noted. Cover is flat with no surface wear. Inks are bright with high reflectivity and a minimum of fading. Corners are cut square and sharp with ever-so-slight blunting permitted. A 1/16" bend is permitted with no color break. Small, inconspicuous, lightly penciled, stamped or inked arrival dates are acceptable as long as they are in an unobtrusive location. Slight foxing. Spine is tight and flat. Staples are generally centered; may have slight discoloration. Almost no stress lines. Paper is off-white to cream, supple and fresh. Slight interior tears are allowed. meself 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scburdet Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 By CGC standard this is a NG b/c they don't have cases that hold anything over magazine size. I'd say 9.0/9.2 just to account for the tanning meself 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
