PGM: Sea Devils #11

[The Paper Monster-migratio]

Pages are off-white to yellow. 3mm tear on top of back cover. 4mm tear on bottom of back cover. The tear on the bottom goes through 5 pages. Put on your scuba gear and dive on in. Thanks.

A real toughie to grade. Front looks 7.0 but those back cover tears worry me, especially if pages are affected. Somewhere around 5.0/5.5 is my guess.

The tears are pretty small, I would say 6.5.

Given the number of watchers vs. graders on this thread, I think no one else is eager to plunge into the deep end! I tend to think that any damage affecting interior pages would take the grade out of Fine, unless the book were otherwise spectacular. Nothing to really back that up though, just my opinion.

6.0, but I may be letting the overall attractivness sway me a little to the high side.

I don't think small interior tears are that big of a deal. A lot of books have them from production anyway. Just my opinion, though I don't think OSGG or CGC would take off a whole lot for them. They tend to go light on intererior defects, VERY light.

I agree, but I checked an older Grading Guide (1992), and the highest grade in which they allow tears is Fine (55-74). "Interior pages may have small tears in the margins . . .". Therefore I would grade book 7.0.
