Gil Fein Posted September 10 Share Posted September 10 I've had this one a long time. Front cover shows well. Back cover, not so much. Grade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scburdet Posted September 11 Share Posted September 11 NG. Can't see all the edges of the comic. Needs better images Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowGradeBronze Posted September 11 Share Posted September 11 Broadly appears to be in the 1.8 to 2.0 range for me, but better pictures would definitely help in being more specific. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Point Five Posted September 11 Share Posted September 11 Yep, front looks great, back is pretty ruff and may have slight brittleness. I'd guess 3.0 or thereabouts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmac100 Posted September 11 Share Posted September 11 I'd estimate a 3.0 (high end 3.5) with a clean & press and the golden age leniency. Assuming the interior is intact and fully attached, and there are no issues with the bottom right front cover which is not visible in the picture. That front cover is beautiful; too bad about the back cover. But least it's the back and will look great in a slab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gil Fein Posted September 12 Author Share Posted September 12 Thanks. The front is great, the staples are great and the inside is sound. The back does have some brittleness, that is pretty bad, along with the visible chunks missing. And that baby ruth bar looks disgusting. I'm new to slabbing. Not trying to sell it soon, but want to preserve/quantify the value. Think I should have it graded? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vheflin Posted Saturday at 09:18 PM Share Posted Saturday at 09:18 PM I think this is tough to grade, will be true test as to whether CGC actually looks at the back of books 2.5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JollyComics Posted Sunday at 03:01 AM Share Posted Sunday at 03:01 AM FC looks nice = 6.0 BC doesn't look good. Water damage, one big tear and one missing piece = 2.0 Your book may be 3.5/4.0 but the inside cover looks brownish that may drop to somewhere 3.0.

Gil Fein Posted Sunday at 04:45 AM Author Share Posted Sunday at 04:45 AM Thanks for the feedback. Maybe I can hide that nasty looking baby Ruth back cover. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
