grebal Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 (edited) My guess is that cgc would give it a 7.5, but I've seen very few of this issue graded. As you said, Morganmi, the top edge, the tiny tear, and back cover top edge etc. It's a gorgeous copy! Congrats.

I'd love to see an 8.5 after a successful press but that may be pushing it. Congrats and keep us posted please!

TheBook Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 First off, thats a beautiful book. Make sure you check for color touch. FF52 is the world champion of CT. Tear on the top is -1.0 to -1.5 Minor edges all around -0.5 to -1.0 I see 2-3 spine tics -0.5 Should be solid 7.5 You got a chance at 8.0 If your grader is having a bad day 7.0 May the CGC gods be with you.

Thanks for the insightful response. Checked for color touch when I bought it and inside cover revealed nothing also. This comics brother FF 53 also came with this one and it is in equaly nice condition except it's got a lot of chipping or something along the top edge. These came from an old guy in my town who's not a collector but said he had had them for a long time probably from someone in his family and probably original owner.

Mars76 Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 I'm gonna say 8.5. The top back edge keeps me from going higher. I'd be surprised if it gets lower than an 8.0. That's a really nice book👍 Morganmi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SellinMyCollection Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 The tear hurts it but still thinks it’s a gorgeous 7.5. 8.0 maybe higher after CNP. Let us know after CGC grading. Morganmi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
