Recently purchased this great copy of a hulk 180 for only 300 USD! I was kinda curious as to what grade you guys think this comic would get if i were to send it to CBCS. There are old tape marks but the tape is no longer on the comic. |

I haven't aired it out. It's part of the provenance. | Galen130 private msg quote post Address this user | |
Is that tape on the front at the top spine corner, or tape residue? | ||

did the tape server any purpose, such as a spine split? | ||

I'm still learning but I would give a 5.0 looks like a crease going down spine that breaks color.bottom left.spine tics under to the right of hulk pic,color breaks on edges going across bottom.and the tape residue.also stains on back cover.i'm not a pro. So don't take my word,just putting my 2cents in b4 tell ya the real deal.good luck | ||

The spine issues really bring down an otherwise nice copy of the book. White pager too. Best case is a 5.5, more likely 5.0. |

My gut says 4.0. Are you planning to press? | ||

How do I know this? Because I've done it myself. | lawguy1977 private msg quote post Address this user | |
My gut said 4.0 as well. Definitely press it if you send it for grading. Awesome book! | ||

A professional cleaning will help the eye appeal for sure. No higher than 5.0/5.5 afterwards…in my opinion. | ||
