Jasgut Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Hey everyone! Debating whether to slab. Would love a few sets of eyes to make my ultimate choice based on what I spent on it. Some ticks. Tanning. staple stress. A little stain on the bottom of the cover. Thanks! 1950's war comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorWyoming1 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 It would benefit from a good clean and press. Getting vibes of a 6.0 and wondering if others agree. I don't know about slabbing as a good top loader plus your own home made label might be a better way to go. That said, if you want to slab it cuz you just want to, don't listen to anyone else and just go on and do it. Jasgut 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s where I’m looking for feedback. The tanning is strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lninefingers Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 I'd say 6ish. It generally presents a little bit better than that but there's a host of minor defects that I think hold it down. Than said, I think a wide range of outcomes are possible here - you could get a friendly grader who decides they're no big deal and bumps it up, or hammers it pretty hard. Which is perhaps a long winded way of saying I really don't know what this comes back at. Jasgut 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronzemarvel Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 I'm closer to 5.0, considering the wear at front top, that bend at back bottom left corner, what looks like other bends on the cover and the amount of foxing. Jasgut 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scburdet Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 4.0/4.5. Spine doesn't look great. Back cover has a lot of discoloration & it doesn't look like it's all surface grime. Jasgut 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Baru Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 5.0, the back bottom spin hurts the grade. Jasgut and FoggyNelson 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAY1979 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 4.0 / 4.5 (even with a good C&P) Keep it Raw! Compared to 2 years ago 9.4 and below are in free-fall and the 194 9.8's are being hit by the ongoing scandal. FoggyNelson and Jasgut 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoggyNelson Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Too many photos but looks 5.5 Jasgut 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1950's war comics Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 it's been read a few times and appears to be in the 5.0-6.0 range Jasgut and FoggyNelson 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morbius21 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 clean and press it. wait for her onscreen appearance rumors, then list and sell it. People are actually waiting for this character to show up. Jasgut 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grendelbo Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 About a 5.0. Slab it if you will. It looks fine in the toploarder and it's equally protected. Jasgut 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
