    It looks great. That said, I am not knowledgeable in color touch/trimming but I definitely noticed something odd with the color, too. The top edge looks a bit strange as well.

    Fair enough. But even the good guys miss one now and then! Definitely give that area a close look before submitting.

     

    Thanks guys. I definitely will.  Maybe this should be titled restored or not? :ohnoez:

    Hey everyone!

    So with your help this will take place in a couple parts.  I just purchased this today and still waiting for delivery but I will submit the two pictures I have of the book.

    After everyone guesses the current grade I will share what I was told by the seller what they graded it as, and then the next step will be to see if the group thinks a press will help it before I get it graded.

    And after all that I will do an unveiling once it comes back from CGC.

    As always thanks so much for the support!

    Is TOS 39 still as highly regarded?

    in Silver Age Comic Books

    Posted

    My top silver age books that I have always cherished are in order AF 15, FF 1, HULK 1, X-MEN 1, TOS 39, AVENGERS 1, AVENGERS 4, TTA 27. Still missing my JIM 83 but hoping to get one this year and place it right after my TOS 39. The coolest part is that I joined this unbelievable forum February 1st 2016 and have purchased each of those books except for my Avengers 4 (already owned it) here on the forum. It started with meeting Bunky Brian at a local comic show after being out of collecting for maybe 15 years. He told me about the forum and less than a year after that I met him at his business and purchased my AF15 and have not looked back. I have been really lucky to find myself surrounded by some great people here that I have purchased some incredible books from, sold a few good books too as well and all while soaking up valuable advice along the way. 

    (Oops just remembered got my FF 1 through a comiclink auction but only after some great forum advice). :gossip:
