Before a Mad's true value can be assessed, its condition or state of preservation must be determined. In all Mads, the better the condition the more desirable and valuable the Mad. Therefore it is very important to be able to properly grade your Mads. Mads should be graded from the inside out, so the following areas should be examined before assigning a final grade. Check inside pages, inside spine and covers and outside spine and covers for any tears, markings, brittleness, tape, soiling, chunks out or other defects that would affect the grade. After all the above steps have been taken, then the reader can begin to consider an overall grade for his or her Mad. The grading of a Mad is done by simply looking at the Mad and describing its condition, which may range from absolutely perfect newsstand condition MINT to extremely worn, dirty, and torn POOR.
