Description: This comic is part of a collection I started in the 1960s when it was purchased new. Since I have no experience grading comics I sent it to CGC for assistance in October. CGC described it as a grade 5 with OFF-WHITE to WHITE Pages. The "Grader Notes" that were returned were: -moderate bends cover-multiple crease cover breaks color-multilple water stain front coverThe cover definitly has some creases in it but I don't think it looks too bad. I also can't see the "water stain" mentioned to be on the front cover. I was surprised CGC described the page color as "OFF-WHITE to WHITE" since I wouldn't have described the pulp paper they used back then as very white even when it was new. I would say they are off-white. When taking photos of the front and back cover I had some problems with glare. I took two pictures of each with the light source on opposite sides.
