CGC Universal Grade 1.8 Good- Certification #: 4046497014 CGC Page Quality: Off-White to White Grading Date: 08/18/2022 Publisher: Quality Comics Issue Date: Jan. 1940 CGC Grader Notes: moderate creasing to cover moderate pieces out to cover moderate spine splits to cover moderate staining to cover staple detached top of cover Regarding note #2, above 'pieces out of cover' is what downgrades this comic so severely since it presents well otherwise. While 'Stanley Pajak' writing his name across the top of the cover is not overly destructive to the grade, stamping 'PAJAK' through the bottom of the front cover is.
