PGM House of Mystery 179- 1st Wrightson art

[Buck Biggins]

Has 3 very faint non-color breaking spine stresses that are less than 1/8 of an inch. Very sharp corners but has pen mark on cover. Most copies from this collection seemed to have them.

 

 

 

 

THIS IS THE SAD PART. Insert scary music.

 

The interior cover has tanning and some sort of small interior cover stain on the top front cover. I did this scan very carefully holding the page over the scanner hoping it would be close enouh to read. No damage done. So what type of grade can I still hope for with this interior.

Usually staining like that + the tanning back -c = 6.0

I would have to say 6.5. The tanning is pretty bad.

[sterlingcomics]

This one is tricky. Personally, tanning aside--this looks like a 7.5 or even 8.0...

 

with the stuff going on there...you should expect a bump down to 7.0, which is my pesonal opinion.

 

Despite the tanning, I would hold onto that book. Did you acquire the pen mark collection?

[Timulty]

The Grading Bastiche says....6.0. Yeah, real harsh but that staining and tanning really takes away from the book. Add into that the Pen Mark. Did notice the Date Stamp though.

What's up with the lower back corner? Water stain?

[jduran1]

It is not water it is a corner that is somewhat dry compared to the rest of the book. There is no water damage on this book. I didn't notice it until it showed up on the scan. The book is tight and may have been read a couple of time.s

[sterlingcomics]

scans too small and the color is all messed up.

[jduran1]

Save the picture to your system and supersize it with zoom.

Well you can tell this book did not come out of the 25 cents box. can't you. I just haven't figured out how to get large scans on the boards using picturetrail. thanks

You sure? I can see tidelines even on that small scan. I would give it another look.
