scburdet Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 At least from what I can tell, this is tanned. Is that a bend crease through the TRFC? Is that a water spot(s) along the bottom edge of the back? The coloration of the cover makes seeing defects tricky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JollyComics Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 It's nice to have this number one copy. It's 76 years old book. Yes, it's difficult to spot the defects on the white/beige cover. I do see the crease and some water spots. It's impossible to grade not have this book in my hands. I give it the grade range - 5.5 to 6.5. Are you intending to submit this book to CGC?

It could also be a great candidate for the grading contest! 😂 The biggest flaw is the noticeable lack of cover whiteness. I’m not sure about the differences between cream, tan, and brown covers Edited August 31 by Mavrick76 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
