NOTES: There is NO allowance or consideration for the "age" of the Playboy magazine in regards to it's grade. A 1950's issue is no different than a 2020 issue when evaluating its condition....so, if you are a collector, and grade is important to you, when you see "it looks good for it's age" I would reconsider the purchase.QUALIFIED: A qualified grade simply means that "IF" the noted defect was NOT considered, this is what the issue would grade as. Frequently used when a loose centerfold or missing page is present, grading the issue on its merits, not including the flaw.
