STAR-STUDDED COMICS #7vintagecomics fanzinepublished in 1965by the Texas Trio (Larry Herndon, Howard Keltner and Buddy Saunders)MY MAGAZINE GRADING SYSTEM
I try tobe fair and honest in my grading, and make every attempt to mention loose orcut pages, stains, tears, binding damage, etc.
SometimesI find that a magazine falls between two grades, in which case I will list itwith a two-grade scale.
NEARMINT - MINT: I rarely use these grades, except when a magazine is in trulyexceptional condition.
VERYFINE: very nice with virtually no major defects.
FINE+:an even nicer copy, with minimal obvious defects.
FINE:a nice copy, flat with minor creases; may have some spinestress, but no prominent defects.
FINE-:better than VG+ but just a bit short of what I would considerFine.
VERYGOOD+: most of the magazines I list fall into this grade; a typicalread magazine with obvious defects as noted.
VERYGOOD: fairly well-read with an accumulation of tears and defects asnoted; may be heavily creased or spine-rolled.
GOOD:a complete but heavily-read magazine; may be missing pieces ofcovers, loose covers, rolled spine or other noted damage.
FAIR:a rough magazine, with many defects including tears. missingpieces, water damage, spine wear, etc.
POOR: no missing pages unless noted, butotherwise a pretty trashed magazine; almost any and every damage may bepresent.
