None of my copies list Brad's name.  Just "Laird & Foster".

What's wrong with this pic? 

it doesn't have Brad's name for the pin up, just his last name?

 looks identical to my first and second prints.

maybe it was submitted as a 2nd print and they forgot to label it as such ? my only guess

Is that a slight spine roll to the left of T in Turtles ? Or more like an indent  or is it the picture and the cover is flat ?   9.2

I think due to the tight bindery it has the slightest curl where you mentioned. Maybe due to the cover stock which seems thicker than other issues? The spine itself is essentially flawless.  Not sure if a press would in turn flatten that spot. 

Been on the hunt for a good grading contender. I have 3 copies in the same condition. they are un-pressed , vibrant and tight . 

Would love to see opinions of members before sending off in a big turtle submission. 

cheers,

i gotta get into the OA game 

you have a pm from me !

Does anyone happen to have the last nycc #3 sales on record? 

I hope to find some gems like that ! I'm 1/3 of the way for my NM graded collection of volume 1!

i think they changed it to "TGRI" to keep away from any alien influence, of course i could be wrong

checked the back. No G to be found

mine has it as well. perhaps its for "game" but the G isnt shown

any updated sales on a 9.2 white pages ?

has it been confirmed or debunked yet that #2 1st and 2nd printings can be distinguished by the white corner in the bottom left of the cover? All my 1st prints have it. 2nd prints do not, which i guess would mean 2nd prints would also be shorter. Anyone else chime in on this !?

Post some crisp clean photos of what your talking about. Thanks!!!

first photo is of a 1st print #2

next is of a 2nd print #2

this is the white corner im speaking of. Wanted to see if this holds up with other copies

you can barely see it but the little 'mark' talked about above the building seems to be there, or am i mistaken ? might be another cgc messup

eastman's attending heroes con next year. Something to look forward to !!!

Another one I'm very psyched about simply because I've found that 2nd prints can be very tough to track down. It seems that not many people kept 2nd prints in great shape.

 

Here's the first graded 9.8 copy of Raphael (2nd print)

 

 

+1

I also like the one eyed turtle you got on one of them

hes just winking !

I'm still waiting for the turtle crew to come in and start shreddin'.
