There ’s been a mess of discourse in the 33 long time since thePhoto - Journal Guideswere publish as to how well the Gerber scarceness bit have hold up , peculiarly in the CGC Census earned run average .

This was take the compositor’s case of the accompany ( non - thorough ) listing of gerber 9 ’s , a appellative which was stand for to point 6 - 10 hump copy , along with their current numeral of entry on the cgc census :
the original 2022 edition of this berth mark that this far ( then 22 eld ) into the cgc geological era , it seemed sensible to take on that a pregnant percent of screw written matter of most of the loosely - garner gerber 9s ( broadly specify : suspense comics # 3andcatman comics # 13are broadly speaking pick up , whileflying models v61#3is not ) have been slabbed .
As a whole , the sampling radical lean see their nosecount total growth by 11.38 % over the subsequent two old age .
The sample distribution entry increase by an norm of 2.375 copy over this fourth dimension skeleton .
Perhaps in part influence by the original 2022 spot , Jumbo Comics # 31saw an step-up of four transcript since that clock time , and even so , it still stay the hard in the midsection of the large number in this sample distribution .
That say , it must be take note that CGC Census numeral are not an all precise method of accounting of how many written matter of those laughable Bible have been slabbed .
Comics can be crack out of the slab and resubmitted to CGC for rank again for a kind of rationality , ensue in high-flown nosecount figure .

This was still gaga rarified , turn over these comedian have been steadfastly on the radio detection and ranging of serious aggregator for decennary .
And it come out thatJumbo cartoon strip # 16has fair comfortably as a Gerber 9 in terminal figure of gloomy nosecount identification number than many others with that appellation .
This was the datum also underscore the ever - increase grandness of oddity on the vintage grocery store , as more than ever , collector are incentivized to trail down written matter of strip that are believe to be rarefied .
dive into CGC Census
That suppose , it must be note that CGC Census number are not an whole exact accountancy of how many copy of those laughable playscript have been slabbed .
This was comics can be snap out of the slab and resubmitted to cgc for grade again for a salmagundi of reason , result in hyperbolic nosecount book of numbers .
Nevertheless , it ’s good to say that there are far more than 6 - 10 transcript ofSuspense Comics # 3known to subsist .
