  1. Thanks, I agree. Bottom staple is kind of dark. There is a diagonal crease/fold from the Torches' knees(?) through the bottom of the cover, but it doesn't show due to the background color (and doesn't break color throughout). A chip or two by the buildings, although one is just folded back ( I wish I could get at it!). Pretty happy with it.
  2. For those that subbed on-site in Chicago, how did your books come out?
  3. I was just happy to get one Top 20 SA book in Chicago (courtesy of Mr. Bedrock).
  4. For those that don't frequent the Magazine thread ...
  5. Picked this up at Wizard World Chicago on Saturday. I don't recall ever seeing a copy.
  6. No onsite grading for me this year. That saved a couple of bucks.
  7. I saw one on Heritage recently and thought it was a typo. Has there been a revision to the page quality list, or have I been ignorant to this level?
  8. If it doesn't say "reprint" in the upper left corner of the cover, or on the inside, that's a nice find.
  9. The #320 just came up in another thread where we're trying to add to/correct the OSPG list of top copper books. Overstreet defines copper as '84-'92, so B&V didn't make the list. But these years also exclude Grendel & Primer from the list. Maybe if the book had been printed in black and white.
  10. There's more for your life at Sears. (thumbs u
  11. Oh my. Between this & warped slabs, I'm having second thoughts about on-site grading at WWChicago this year.
  12. There are also Overstreet Price Guides from the early 70s that have blank backs instead of the Robert Bell ads & no ads on the inside. I thought I had read that this was done due to the exchange rate & prices not being accurate for the Canadian market. May be a partial explanation for this phenomenon.
  13. Forgive me if this cover has been posted already, but this is the only contribution I can make to this thread.
  14. The only DC title I cared to collect. This finishes the run.
  15. Not a magazine per se, but the stickers from the Cracked Magazine trading card set circa 1978. Sylvester P. Smythe & John Severin.
  16. Not a comic, but related. I always liked that it featured an American super hero on a box of Chinese Checkers purchased in Mexico (circa 1987).
