PGM FF 48 2 2

[Doug George]

found in a box of books in a thrift store.    Someone used felt tip marker.  All pages are intact.

Is this worth getting graded, and does it have any value?  A valuable issue if it wasn't so messed up...

  Thanks,

I would say it is around a 2.5 or Good Plus-plus.  It should get a CGC blue label as this is doodling not restoration (from what I can discern in your photos).  It is a fairly common Silver Age key, with a lot of copies both raw & graded just sitting on eBay now.  If it were my copy - I would not spend the time & money grading it but keep it raw and look to trade it.  My best guess without looking up current prices now is it could be worth around $500 to the right person, who doesn't mind the cover markings, as this remains a very popular key for good reason.  If you are looking to sell it online - then grading it might be the way to go and the front cover here has very nice gloss and deep colors too - which is preferable.
