Guess the CGC grade! ASM 252

[Aces]

I'll upload some scans here to give a real-life size look of the book and then I'll give some links to photobucket for some bigger scans.

They allow up to 512KB now!

 

My Pre-grade was: 9.2

 

From what you see, what do you think?

I can't call for notes on my books until Monday.

Back:

 

That mark above the M in Spider-man front cover is a cat hair.

It's on the back too, a little to the northeast.

You know how it is with cats when you set up something new.

They gotta come over and look it over.

Looks like a solid 9.4....could be higher..hard to tell with size of scan (smaller one)

Nice book

[Pirate]

no way to tell somewhere between an 8.0 and 10.0

[B-Smooth]

It might eeek out a 9.2 due to the spine stresses. I know they are tough on this book.

[supapimp]

so what books did you submit?

[Psiknight]

9.0?

[Timulty]

The Grading Bastiche says....9.4. I am prepared to be wrong.

[B-Smooth]

you are wrong. After looking at the back spine I have to change my grade to 9.0

[eddly]

PLOD and 8.5

[mar-vell]

you are wrong. After looking at the back spine I have to change my grade to 9.0

 

A very STRICT 9.0!

[paperheart]

9.0

[KingOfRulers]

9.2

[Jeffreykli]

I'd say 9.2.

[Aces]

OK, I called for the Grader's notes.

 

First off the pages: Off-White to White

forgot that....

 

None of these were PLODs or new restored/qualified BLOUs or whatever.

 

All are true blues.

 

Notes:

ASM 252: Dent lower left front cover; Finger bends; Small stain bottom right front cover

 

This is the only book that had some serious notes.

[Sal]

8.5
