ARVÉ GRADED COLLECTIBLES JAPAN is a Japan-based curator specializing in graded collectibles such as comics, manga, video games, cameras, and other long-term investment pieces.
Our base of operations is Hokkaido, Japan – one of the least humid regions in the country. This low-humidity environment greatly reduces the risk of mold, paper warping, and other humidity-related damage, making it ideal for preserving high-grade collectibles.
We have a proven track record of submitting coins and other collectibles to major grading companies and selling graded items worldwide, and now apply that expertise to manga and games.
Our mission is to reconstruct the value of collections and curate items for future collectible potential.
This listing is for Weekly Shonen Sunday Zoukan 1986 Issue #5, professionally graded by CBCS with a final grade of 7.5.
This special issue features material related to Yamada no Koto, reflecting the evolving editorial direction of Weekly Shonen Sunday during the mid-1980s. Due to the disposable nature of magazine stock and limited circulation of Zoukan (special edition) issues, surviving copies from this period are extremely rare.
