Hey guys, can you give me a hand with this one?

Here's a nice mid-grade GA to try grading, since we were discussing them yesterday. There's some color flaking on the spine which is pretty well hidden from the front (but if you look at the back cover spine, you'll get the idea better). Covers have some visible yellowing in the center, but pages are pretty nice. Thanks all!

My favorite EC cover

 

I would say 4.5 to 5.0.

Great cover. I'm not seeing anything that would drop it below 5.5

General edgewear and slightly rounded corners. NO creases, NO stains, NO chips. This is a well-preserved book with an accumulation of small flaws. Still retains a good degree of eye appeal.

 

That is, it is a textbook 6.0 by almost any standard. With a slight GA bump, I'd have no problem calling this a 6.5. Without the spine rubs and the overhang creases, I'd be tempted to call it a 7.0.

 

 

OK... let the VGs fly...

5.5

6.0, the crinkly overhang, the noticably rounded top corner, and the color chips on the spine visible from the back are just a bit too much for me to be completely comfortable with 6.5, but it sure has nice eye-appeal!

I agree.

 

Great looking copy!

Looks like a solid 6.0.

[Mad Dog]

I would be happy paying 6.0 guide for this one

 

Resembles a copy that has been taken moderate - better than average care off but has been handled many times and read many times. As mentioned no stains no foxing nothing to detract significantly from eye appeal. Faults being rounded corners LUC on FC a bit bumped as well, spine dings and a slight overhang. Its a FINE looking comic book

One of the very few EC books I had and regret to this day selling

5.5

6.0- nice solid looking book that presents well despite general wear and aging deserving an upper mid grade- GA books like this are great finds! Nice yet still affordable!

Thanks for the responses, folks!
