TomCol Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 Hi all, I’m new to this forum and I’m really enjoying looking through the threads and seeing all the posts! I’m fairly new to collecting and I’m looking to send my first book off to CGC for grading (I’m absolutely terrified)! I’ve just bought this book, it’s quite a nice copy but I’ve noticed it has some ink stains/bleeds? I would really appreciate people’s opinions on what the book may grade Thanks, Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theCapraAegagrus Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 Not great images, but I'd put it in the 6.0 range IMO. TomCol and The Lions Den 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comicginger1789 Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 Yeah, 6.5 from me tops. Might benefit from cleaning on the back but those corner creases on the front likely keep it from approaching the VF range. TomCol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galen130 Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 Welcome to the boards!!! Nice British copy. I’ll go 6.5 as well, but a clean/press might get it to 7.0. TomCol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kramerica Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 6.5. Where were the ink stains/bleeds you mentioned? TomCol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Lions Den Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 A nice clean mid grade copy. 6.5 seems reasonable... TomCol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s a blue line at the bottom of the white ‘15’ box. Also on both of Kraven’s biceps. It’s quite difficult to see unless you’re zoomed right in!
