GRADE IS IN; PGM Silver Surfer 4 1 1

[Greg Ciraulo]

Hey Guys, 

Trying this out for the first time. Already sent this in for a press and to be graded. Main concern is the tear by the hammer. It measured 5/16 from what I saw but worst case 3/8 inch. It’s kind of like a spine tick-to-tear because it doesn’t really rip through the page entirely if that makes sense. A few other spine ticks and bottom right corner crease. Only have cover pics as I submitted this already: Back cover is clean and no staining.

Need better pictures AND one of the back cover to give an educated grade. Uneducated it is anywhere from 5.0 to 8.0.

Yea I would provide more if I could but I just came across this thread and I don’t have the book on hand. Back cover is clean and no other tears. All pages intact and look good, no spine splits.

Added another pic I found which is just the cover but brighter.

NG.

you would get better results with it out of plastic and back cover and a interior pic as well. otherwise no idea maybe a 6.0.. maybe a 8.0   (carelessly tossing random grade please ignore it)

TAKE IT OUT of the BAG!  You must show front and back cover or will not get an accurate guesstimate at all.

Grade is in: I know I didn’t provide enough pics, but I didn’t have the book on hand at the time since I had already submitted.

Result: 8.0 WHITE 🔥

Congrats!

I would have given a rough guess (only seeing front cover through a bag) at a 7.0 due to the tear.

It must be pretty sharp in-hand to get 8.0 with that tear.

Nice book!

I was thinking a 7.5 tops but I had my expectations set around a 7 as well -- I did get it pressed as well, so that probably helped it overall grade.

Definitely pleased with the White Pages on any SA book.
