PGM: Jo-Jo Comics #18 (1948) 0

Hi all, thanks for looking. Just curious what you all think about this one.  Staples are firmly attached, everything is attached and complete, no missing pieces, tears, or writing in the interior.  It needs a press, I suppose.

Page quality is rather nice. sorry for the glare in a couple of the photos.

I will take a stab at a 3.5, If there isn't staining on the girls legs and other spots on the front cover, I may go to a 4.0 on this, i am interested to see what others think. Nice golden age book!

It's not staining. It might be a fingerprint, though. I'll take a closer look.

4.5 with a shot at a 5.0 for me

4.0

[WPPJames]

As usual, I go lower. 3.0 my guess.

Great colors... I do think the photo glare might be throwing folks. Very little color loss. 4.5 seems about right. Nice one!

Colors are really great on this one. And the lack of any major color breaking flaws just makes it pop. It's well centered, does need a clean and press, and has a rough spine, but it's a lovely copy IMO.  Going to be listing it for sale this weekend I think.

4.5 on a really cool book!  

[theCapraAegagrus]

5.0 IMO.

[WolverineX]

4.0

[sagekilz]

4.5 - 5

Is it from a pedigree?

I don't know. The "W" written on the front probably should have prompted me to research a bit and I did wonder about it, but I've already sold the book.

so strange to me that grades are all over the place. To me the book is a 3.5 maybe a 4.0 and I dont see how it can get as high as a 5.
