migmtl76 Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 How will a slight amount of foxing on the back cover affect the grade. I read that the grade should start at 9.4 at best. Is that true ? I got this on eBay by the way. As you can see, the foxing is only visible when looking real close. Not slab worthy anymore... The seller never mentioned it. I am returning the collection I bought for a refund. All have foxing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeypost Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 This would be closer to 9.0/9.2 with that amount of foxing. migmtl76 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theCapraAegagrus Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 I personally wouldn't grade it above a 9.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hero Restoration Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 I might be able to remove the foxing for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Lions Den Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 (edited) CGC has seemed to waver a bit on the foxing issue in the last few years. I'd personally be thinking no higher than a 9.2 on a book that would otherwise grade a 9.6... Edited October 30, 2019 by The Lions Den Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My observations of life is, everything is impossible until someone figures it out. Been so busy pressing my brains out, I haven't had the time to do the research. They don't go away every time, and I'm not sure why it works half the time and the other time half of the time it doesn't, yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
