Sorry CGC has exemplary double standards judgement to what they deem appropriate to grade, Penthouse just isn't up to the caliber of their standards.

1950's war comics Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 i always thought that a Penthouse #1 from 1965 might have some value , but i looked it up on eBay and you can get one for just a couple hundred bucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadroch Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 Reading between the lines, the response from the other CGC rep seems to say they won't refund your fee if the book is rejected for being too risque. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
revat Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 Very generally, if you have a reasonably well-known magazine title, just look it on ebay to see if they have graded copies for sale (or sold). Or if you're a bit more savvy, you can look it up on the CGC census. If they don't have ANY of that title graded, you probably can't get it graded.

Administrator CGC Mike Posted March 25 Administrator Share Posted March 25 Here is a paragraph from the terms of use. Note that comic related material is more tolerant than non comic material. Nude images: Given that this is a comic book collecting forum, some leeway for actual comic imagery is provided, more so than non-comic related imagery. Some nudity is allowed when it is comic related and done in a tasteful manner. However, there are many comics that are quite explicit and aren't allowed to be posted here. Also, we grade Penthouse Comix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
