Please grade this Fight Comics #33... CGC grade is in! 1 1

[Point Five]

Beautiful copy of this toughie. Amazingly flat and glossy. A handful of flaws on closer look though:
-- Cutout strip in the top margin of page 1 (see 3rd pic)
-- Small nibbles to the lower right corner of the first 5-6 pages
-- Piece of tape at top spine corner (visible on back cover), I guess to preventively seal a very tiny split at the top.

The cutout is kind of a head-scratcher. What do you think a non-qualified grade would look like on the book?

Thanks!

Lots of eye appeal. With the tape and strip missing, Overall I'd go with 3.5, unless there's interior brittleness.

agree ,, the accumulation of defects would might keep this nice looking comic from being a 4.0 but it would be the nicest 3.5 anyone has ever seen

4.0 IMO.

I agreed with you guys who said 3.5, so this grade was a nice surprise. Seems like they minimally docked it for the splash page issue.

Nice surprises are always welcomed
