    Son, did I ever tell you about the time I finished 8th to 12th place in a CGC grading contest?

  1. I do see your last four grades in the spreadsheet in the top post... 3, 3, 1, 3. Nothing has changed since I posted the chart last night. Check again? Happy to make the fix if I screwed something up (always possible) but it looks right to me.
  2. Some of you were pretty harsh on that poor Crime Mysteries! There's wear on/around the spine, true, but the book has positives... the rest of the cover looks clean and sharp. To me this is one of those forest-for-the-trees type things... someone not super plugged into grading like we are would consider this a *really* well-preserved 1950s comic book.
  3. Sorry... one more quick thank you as the end credits roll. My thanks as always to @sckao, who set up the Excel scoring sheet that I use for these contests back in 2020. I would not be able to program this scoring (or do it manually) to save my life. Not sure if he's still around here but his kindness is not forgotten. Thanks, Shin!

  6. Final Results: All the guys at the top racked up some crazy impressive numbers for sure... but we have a winner. Congratulations to @grendelbo, winner of Point Five's 5th Annual Grading Contest!!! Honorable mention to @jbpez and @TheTallGuy, taking the silver and bronze slots respectively!!! Cheers all!!!
  7. 13. Crime Mysteries #14 Grades varied widely on this one! Nice midgrade copy.
  8. 12. True Love Pictorial #6 I had this at 3.5 in hand and most folks were somewhere around there too. Structure is pretty tight... strict grading on this one.
  9. 11. Fight Comics #27 Looks like it might have squeaked out a 4.5 IMO? but nah.
