I'm considering a book w/ light tan to off white pages...

[dizzyfoxx]

...in a CGC Universal older label. It's a very cool book and cover is a decent mid-grade. My question is, how are Light Tan to Off White pages viewed, generally speaking? Do they cause you to look past a book?

[G.A.tor]

I typically go as low as cream...but, on a rare or really cool book, light tan to off white is ok with me

exactly; avoid if you can, but sometimes you just gotta go there. my mm 9 is just such a page quality book. when the book is staying in the slab, it seems even less an issue.

however, knowing the book the Diz is going after (rare applies), I say a big YES

I feel the same- and I collect mostly low grade books to boot. I'm still a relatively young guy, and I'd like my comics to survive as long as I do.

 

having said that, it's not the kiss of death that 'brittle' is.

Hew Diz---CGC was tougher on PG Q. in their early years, so any re-subs might fetch better pg quality....with GA, sometimes you can't be too picky, but, of course, cream to ow is usually the minimal...light tan to ow aint that bad though---my Marvel 5 is light tan to ow and I am not going to cry about that

[Durden08]

I try to stay with Cream to Off-White or better. There's a handful of rare books I'd go light tan with, but not many.

Here's one of a few LTOWP books I have; book is too tough and too sweet to let the PQ bother me:

 

 

Besides, it's a nice complement tothis book:
