So I recently scored a cool Golden Age Flash Comics and was curious what the group saw the grade as. I don't disagree too much with the grade the owner listed it at, but I think he was a little conservative. Here are the scans of it:
I am not upset with what I paid for it, but I am curious to hear what others have to say. It's a really cool book, especially for a fan of the JSA characters like me.

I would probably start around a 3.0, and go from there. Have the staples been replaced? Looks like chipping, or pieces missing along edges and corners. Some creases. Rolled spine. Foxing. Has there been any restoration? The colors look a little off in some areas. Maybe it's just the scan.
Hi Erichey,
As far as I know, there is no restoration and the staples are original. The person who sold it to me listed it as a 3.0 which struck me as a tad conservative, not that I am complaining.
We don't see a ton of Golden Age books for sale around here much less rare ones like this. .
