  1. Peter your sig line is so cool you really need a 27 to seal the deal. Not this copy Too expensive.
  2. S'long as a moderator is posting CBCS scans, I'm safe. Just came back from a wrist slap ( 2 days off ) for posting this CBCS scan in CG.
  3. This is key before jumping to conclusions. CGC 6.5 B-5 as a starting point. Have an image? If it was older resto it's very feasible that it could be improved. Adding enough CT will cover most flaws. No question. Same book. Small circle in Bat's cowl dead giveaway.
  4. CBCS has apparently tightened their grading considerably, or so it goes. The AF15 8.5 must have been graded a while back when they were gift grading everything and the kitchen sink.
  5. Never fear Steve. Tec 35 went all the way to 9.8
  6. In my mailbox Richard. Book was graded 2 days ago.
  7. This is key before jumping to conclusions. CGC 6.5 B-5 as a starting point. Any idea what it was prior to its initial restoration? To hit 6.5 B-5, at best would be 1.0

  9. No. There's restored and then there's super-duper-turbo-charged restored.
  10. Doubt they'll be interested. O they been interested few times now along with my 1 To buy I'm sure. To have work done for you I highly doubt.
  11. Doubt it. Wow what a way to hurt my feelings if i had any.
  12. The Tec 33 9.4 was a 6.0 B-5 so this one was likely same.
  13. But isn't the highest graded #22 a 9.0 [haven't seen the census in a few years] while there are a half dozen or so #4 in 9.0 or higher? Highest is a 9.2 (was my old 8.5 that thomas wilson bought, double up'd and then sold right away on Clink) - maybe 3 years ago. There is a 9.6 sc4 and a 9.4 sc4, but they're both really tough above 8.5, period. SC4 is tougher in aggregate (less copies). sc4 is also easier to get a high page quality on. sc22 next and bb 28 is most difficult of the 3. my dataset is a few dozen to several dozen copies of each. JD I disagree. Currently on the CGC there are: SC 4 Sc22 BB 28 9.6 1 9.6 0 9.6 0 9.4. 2 9.4 0 9.4 2 9.2. 2 9.2 1 9.2 3 9.0 2 9.0 3 9.0 7 8.5 3 8.5 4 8.5 7 8.0 7 8.0 7 8.0 23 7.5 7 7.5 10 7.5 15 The data shows that SC22 is the rarest in 8.0+ grade, next would be SC4 and then BB28. The softer price for BB28 in 8.0 is due to so many copies in 8.0. I agree that SC4 is printed in better paper with three copies with WP's in 7.5+ compare to one SC22 in 7.5+ with WP and one BB28 in 7.5+ with WP. There has been as many as 8 copies Showcase 4 and 15 Brave and the Bold 8.0 added to the census the last five years and compare to only 2 Showcase 22 8.0+ added the last five years. I love all three books, but SC22 is the rarest to find in high grade (yes, I have position on all three books). No question.
  14. Anyone win the restored HA 6.0 copy ? http://comics.ha.com/itm/silver-age-1956-1969-/superhero/amazing-fantasy-15-marvel-1962-cgc-apparent-fn-60-slight-b-1-off-white-to-white-pages/a/7139-93213.s?ic2=mytracked-lotspage-lotlinks-12202013
