Why is this newer (2023) CGC case appear so different
1 1

2 posts in this topic

I was looking up an old Superman #6 book, and the cgc case appears off to me.

In particular, the numbers above the barcode seems smaller than usual; the informational text to the right of the barcode is aligned left (rather than aligned right on all other cgc cases I've seen); and the book itself either appears smaller than normal books (while I thought Golden Age books were bigger)... or the case itself is bigger than normal.

All in all... just seems very off.

Can we confirm this is a legit book/cgc case?  And is there any explanation for what I perceive as differences between this case and other cases from 2023?

 

Thank you.

Hello @WOLVERINE335

Thank you for reaching out the information for this book matched our system. Additionally, the images on the certification page are images taken in-house during the grading process: https://www.cgccomics.com/certlookup/4341816001/

It looks like this book was placed in the larger magazine size holder with a wedge which is likely why it looks out of the norm to you. 

If you have any other questions, please let us know.
