I had sent back my copy of TEENAGE-DIARY SECRETS as it did not have any mention of MARILYN MONROE PHOTO COVER or MATT BAKER ART on the LABEL. CGC really came through and added them. I am very pleased...:) Will be putting up for auction in the next few weeks. Cheers, Maurice

CGC makes no mention they are Canadian editions. 

Yeah, very odd.

Hi, unfortunately I do not know, but there is a resemblance.

Greetings all,

Hope you are all having a Merry X-mas with your loved ones, I received back my CANADIAN EDITION copy of TEEN-AGE DIARY SECRETS #5 (IDENTICAL COVER AND CONTENTS TO TEEN-AGE DIARY SECRETS #6) got a nice grade of 7.5, but I had put a note on the book, e-mailed and even called CGC to make sure they put on the label that this was Marilyn Monroe on the cover (which they mention on the CGC census of this book) with Matt Baker art. But the label came with no mentions. Got a few other Matt Baker books as wel, TEEN-AGE ROMANCES #9 5.5 with the infamous "hold " cover and the highest graded copy of TEEN-AGE ROMANCES #10 at 8.5....:) I will be putting these up for auction in the new year, anyone interested, please contact me and I will notify you when I put them up for auction. Cheers, Maurice

congrats on a great score!

imho, you definitely should use the Express tier.  The Standard tier only covers up to $1000 and the book will be worth more than that.  And then as long as you're pushed into the Express tier, make sure to peg the value at the max of $3000. 

Hard to say how much the FMV is.  One things for sure though - it's a hot book, and the Canadian reprints (in general) are worth more % wise these days then they were in the past.  Maybe 75% now relative to the US edition vs 50% or lower even 3 years ago.

And according to the census they should put Marilyn Monore on the label.  But I'd write that in on the bottom of the submit form anyway.

Thank you for the info Dr.Love, hopefully the rare nature of this book and it's really nice condition added to to the Monroe mention of the label, should negate the "Canadian edition" aspect and push the price up to a comparable US equivalent and perhaps even set a new record for it's grade. Fingers crossed. Cheers, Maurice

Greetings, Hope everyone is having a great Sunday, I just found in a collection I bought, a nice mid grade copy of TEEN-AGE DIARY SECRETS #6 CANADIAN EDITION by SUPERIOR PUBLISHERS, the # in the INDICIA is hard to read due to lousy printing (I hope that will not cause an issue on identifying the book) , I am planning on sending to CGC but was wondering if anyone had any data on the worth of CANADIAN edition in a 6.0? Just so I have a better idea on what tier to use. Also has "Marilyn Monroe on cover" been added now to the CGC label? Thank you in advance for any useful information. Cheers, Maurice
