May 1952 WALT DISNEY COMICS #140 Golf cover with Scrooge.KEY ISSUE 1st Gyro!. Shipped with USPS Media Mail.



This is one of about 60 comics in similar condition from an estate sale. I’m going to guess that is between a very good to fine condition. The only major issue with it is the corner missing from the top cover and the name ‘ Richard’ scrawled in pencil under Walt Disney. Pages are mostly white. Below is a general criteria for grading a comic like this:



FINE / VERY FINE : 7.0

Slightly better condition than FINE +: 6.5, but in lesser condition than the grade above.


FINE+ : 6.5

FINE : 6.0

FINE- : 5.5

This comic is definitely a well-read copy, but can still be a very desirable copy.


VERY GOOD GRADES

VERY GOOD/FINE : 5.0

VERY GOOD+ : 4.5

VERY GOOD : 4.0

VERY GOOD- : 3.5

This comic is definitely a well-read copy, but can still be a very desirable copy.


Book is complete, but with major creases and or a spine roll.

There is almost low cover gloss or at most times none at all.

The inside paper quality is not good and yellow and small pieces of them may be missing.

If there is a piece missing from the cover, it should be no larger than a 1/2" to 1/4".

Books in this grade are almost always creased, scuffed, abraded and soiled, but completely readable. Tape on the comic is considered a defect in this grade.


This could have one major defect like a larger piece out of the cover (1/4 inch to 1/8 inch) or a one-inch plus tear.

It has stress lines around the staples and creases from the opening and closing of the cover.

The whiteness of the pages has been changed to off-white to yellowish color.

This could have a reading or subscription crease or a rolled spine, but is not damaged enough to reduce eye appeal dramatically.

Some discoloration, fading in colors and even minor soiling is allowed.

The cover and/or inside pages could have minor tears and/or folds

Cover can be loose from one staple, but cover cannot be completely detached from interior.

Pages and inside covers could be brown but not brittle.

Depending on the grade of the copy certain amounts are available in this grade. i.e a book that looks 8.0 with a piece of tape on the interior cover is acceptable in this grade.
