PGM Batman #181 1st Poison Ivy Higher grade

[CatskillMike]

FC a few ticks on spine, non color breaking, minor staple stress. BC has something of note on the top.

I'm going to be fairly conservative and say 6.5. Mainly because of the color loss along the bottom and the fuzzy corner in the front bottom left. I think if it were a little brighter I'd even go a full grade higher up to 7.5

7.0.

7.0 from me.

Grades have been a bit harsh so far, on a book with only minor defects.

 

7.5, 8.0 on a good day.

7.5 spine dings, small amount of color loss on bottom, corners a little soft. I would take it for my collection, nice book!

I disagree - one of the beauties of this issue is the deep red cover. The color fade L to R here is quite noticeable.

 

Put me in the 7.0 camp . . . centerfold present and attached? If not crapola ;grin:

It just may have been later in the print run - I don't necessarily take off for the cover being orange as opposed to red.

That's what I was hoping/thinking since i bought it as part of a lot as and it was supposed to be 8.0, but I can see the color loss clearly on the bottom FC. Again, scan makes it look worse than it is. I think i will resize my scans to be the actual size of the books as not to enhance any defects. Thanks to all.

Absolutely, cf secure. That deep red color is striking on this book, and in hand it looks somewhat better.
