  1. I was going through my books and I came across a few I got when this set of books came to market through these forums. Does anyone have any memories or recollections concerning these books...??
  2. Thanks. I didn't know where to sign up.
  3. What level of membership..??
  4. How do I access GPA...?
  5. Is GoCollect a good place to get the information on sales and book values??
  6. GoCollect has an AF15 in 6.0 recent sale at $98,000. Can anyone verify this?? That is one huge jump from a price hovering around $60,000. Thoughts.......
  7. What is there at the top is not "possible edge fraying", but what I call slightly bent overhang of the top of the cover. With that in mind, would your grade remain the same??
  8. One can clearly see the defects with this book from the pictures. I don't like taking this book out or fingering through it, but lets just say for the sake of argument, the centerfold is detached at the bottom staple.
  9. Book is complete. Nothing missing from front or back covers. There is a name written on the cover. Someone "added" another staple to the right of the bottom staple because of a rip in the book. The rip goes through the book but it gets "smaller" in length as it reaches the centerfold. Centerfold is attached. NO spine split! I need to get this book "fixed" and have someone remove the staple and give it a cleaning and a press, if warranted.
  10. The top "edge" is NOT heavily stressed. How did you come up with that?? As one can see, the interior pages show no "heavy stress"? Just askin'....??
  11. Excuse me, but there is no "close to detaching" centerfold. What you are seeing is the paper pushed out from the process of stapling the book.
  12. How much would it roughly cost to slab this book?
  13. Thanks, guys! Do you think I should get it graded..??
  14. There is no oxidation. I would have declared that if there were.......
  15. You are mistaken. The cenerfold is very tight on the book.
  16. Tight and really square book. A little "stress" around top staple. Needs a clean and press for sure.
  17. Centerfold is detached from bottom staple. There is a tear from the bottom of the top staple to the ear of the Mickey Mouse ear. Cover stamp and splash page stamp are different people. No tape.
  18. Thanks to all.................it may be time to send it to CGC. FYI, it's not even a good story. Except for DR. Doom's 1st appearance.
  19. Some upper staple stress...somewhat less staple stress to the bottom staple.......some non-color breaking creases on lower corner which a good press may eliminate.......some sort of "rub" to the left of the 5July near spine.....centerfold firmly attached......no "smell" to book. Please forgive the "brightness" on some parts of the photos as I was trying to block the light from my ceiling from over shadowing the book when I took these photos. Cover and pages are uniform concerning that. It's a strong mid-grade copy, but I'm partial and prejudiced. Let me know what all of you "pros" think this is please.
  20. Does anyone know why this book doesn't get the "love" it deserves?? Doesn't it have a retelling of the FF origin in it??
  21. What's going on with the prices of AF15? With the economic conditions as they are, it's hard to get a grip on what's happening.
  22. Also curious Last sale is $5,975 Average is $5,765 The latest Overstreet price was $4,000. Why the jump..
  23. Cal..who pays fast and is easy to deal with...
