If I had these pages trimmed...would this be considered restoration? mm _________________________ I think I have the oldest, original owner GA collection on the boards.

As DiceX mentioned if you cut the pages apart that would also earn a PLOD, but if the cut was not detected it would be a blue label I'm thinking. $shrug$ _________________________

It looks like something with that shape notched out of it was laying on top of the book for a long time. Yes, CGC will downgrade for it. You might want to look into having the book pressed. _________________________

I have checked these loosely fitting pages and they are devoid of any holes where the bottom staple should be. Yet the bottom staple is intact and holds together some of the pages as intended. How is this caused ?

The comic hasn't been trimmed as I've compared it against another copy of exactly the same issue number.

I have been seeing allot of Double Covers from the Silver Age that have a chunk torn out of the inner cover at the top Left edge that extends around to the back inner cover. I am sure it must be production related since I have seen so many like this, but I am not sure. Do you have any Ideal how or why this could happen?

Reason I ask is I have seen this problem on a bunch of Silver Age Double Cover books but never on any Bronze Age ones. It just seem strange to me that I have ran across so many that all have that tear in the same place the top Left corner and it always goes around to the back cover. $\?\?\?$ _________________________ http://cosmictradingpost.webs.com/asmdoublecovercollection.htm Looking to Buy or Trade for Amazing Spider-Man comics with Double Covers.
