I'm looking for opinions on the grade of my Silver Surfer 3. I only have a picture of front cover. More pictures would be better but its all I've got. All opinions welcome. Thanks!! ![]() |

Can't give a full grade by just one picture but it does look decent. It's a square bound book that definitely needs a pressing to help the spine roll. I can't see staples, any spine splits or page color from that angle. Assuming all pages intact, I'm thinking 5.5 as is. | ||

I give it an N for nice book. Maybe like a 8.5 or 9? The corners look a little dinged but pretty clean otherwise. Great color. |

@andy49 I dont think it'll grade that high...the corners the book have issues especially the bottom left. There's some cover wear at the bottom edge of the book below SS's surf board. | ||

@xkonk I hope so but I'm not sure it'll grade that high. It's really hard to tell with one picture so I do apologize for that but the book is at CBCS right now. It's getting Pressed...March submission. |

If I get a 6.5 or higher I'll be happy. I think if I sent it to CGC I'd get a higher grade. It's going in for pressing so I hope that will help. The worst issue on the book is that bottom left corner. This being said I've been really surprised sometimes with grades so I hope your grade is correct..its possible!! |

I'm going to guesstimate and say 8.0 +/- 0.5. The one bottom right corner. Maybe a little something on the bottom left spine corner (although that might be how the squarebound book was manufactured). A couple of tiny spine tics I think I see which should not hurt terrible on a 60's book. Brilliant colors! - a big plus. The color rub below the surfboard is literally on every issue I've ever seen so that's just manufacturing. Methinks you have some prize there my friend! |

That looks like a 7 to 8 for me. Back images would also help. | ||

Thanks guys!! Maybe I subconsciously grade my own books harsher because if it comes back higher it's a pleasant surprise and if not, then atleast hopefully it meets my expectation. |

@GAC Here's my graded copy for comparison. The spine on your copy looks very similar to the spine on mine and there is that small amount of wear under the surf board on both copies as well. But mine has the mis-cut and a color breaking crease on the top right corner and it still managed to get an 8.0. Your copy looks nicer than mine does, so, judging by the front cover alone, you should get a higher grade than I did. It's still a great book to have, no matter the condition. Good luck, and be sure to let us know the results. ![]() |

@GradedKeyComics Thanks for the comparison picture!! You are so right on it being a great book and your book looks great!! I can't remember how the rest of my book is but hopefully its equal to the front if not better. If I get an 8.0 I'll be ecstatic!! |

And there's that color loss under the bottom of the surfboard again. I am really convinced there is no issues without it. I have never seen one and have looked at many of this issue |
