Formerly from a bound volume, fully restored by the renowned Susan Cicconi at Restoration Lab. Fantastic copy, you'll never see another one this nice for so cheap. The colors on this cover must be seen to be believed. Deeeep blues, hard to find on this issue. Absolutely newstand fresh. It's clear that this book was protected since the month it was printed.

#29 - VF - $1150 - NOW $950 - SOLD TO DAYZEN - (A no-brainer at this price) This book is one of the crowning jewels of my collection. Just about perfect in every way, save the staple pull/tear visible on front cover. Color saturation is the best I've seen for this issue. She's not cheap, but you won't see another like her.

The following discounts represent final prices. I'm happy to do bundle deals though. As always, first  wins the book. Stay tuned.....

Hi Friends, 

First, I wanted to thank EVERYONE who has made this sale a resounding success for me. I couldn't have hoped for a better outcome, and you all have contributed in a big way to the next chapter of my life.

I would like to make a clean sweep and will be offering the remaining 7 (seven !!!) books at significant discounts over the next hour or two. 

The books left are by no-means "Leftovers". Issues like #29 & #36 are pretty special, and #3 & #4 are, well, hardly ever available at any grade....

Recap on 2nd post and last-ish post. -J

BOOOM!! That's how you do it my friend. Congrats, you are now part of a very small club. 

Planet #1 & #2 are the kind of books that, at any grade or price, are guaranteed no-regret buys. I'm really happy for Bill, it's a tremendous book.

That number 9 is probably the coolest book in this thead, which is saying a WHOLE LOT!

And Susan Cicconi is certainly among the very best in the world at this. 

This thread is a whole lotta awesome.

You got that right brother, on all counts, except you haven't seen the next 5 books yet. I'm gonna make some believers tonight....
