oakman29 Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 I recently received this book from one the best board members I know. He graded it and told me one grade, but I quickly snatched it because I thankfully think he undergrades. That's why I always buy from him, and will buy from him as long as he will let me. Let me know what you grading gurus think. 1950's war comics and KobaltDog 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randall Dowling Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 I’ve cracked out 8.0s and 8.5s that looked like this copy. FWIW, I’ve seen Vampirella 1s that looked like this copy in 9.2 slabs also. My personal grading would put this as an 8.0 oakman29 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I think mags are definately harder to come by in the higher grades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Get Marwood & I Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 That Eerie looks great, and I give it an eight Good job it didn't look like poo really isn't it. From a grade rhyming perspective I mean. oakman29 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Lions Den Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 (edited) A little foxing on the back cover, very slight spine stress front cover, tiny wear and tear at the staples, very slight shadow top edge back cover, tiny tear upper left edge back cover. Unless I'm missing something, I see no reason not to give it at least an 8.5...

Though there are no tears on the book, and I was curious about the writing on the cover. That small bit of writing in the "R" doesn't bother me...looks like it could be an arrival date. And if that's just wear at the staples and upper back cover, that's definitely a good thing. As I'm sure you know, even a small tear can affect the grade significantly...

I bought this book from DeadOne here, and I for one think you are an extremely tight grader. That is wonderful for anyone who buys from you. I will certainly keep buying from you.
