    I will give it a shot. Have you had success with it?

    My opinion is to sell on ebay. Great seller protection. You can also try Facebook Marketplace or Instagram, but I dont have much experience with those. You could try a phone app like Offerup. Or, as a last resort, there's always craigslist. That book is pretty valuable. Good luck. Hope you make a sale!

    Anyone ever use backing boards between the inside cover and first page when pressing? Would that help eliminate some defects that are more stubborn? I've only been using silicone release paper, but was thinking a backing board might be better. Thoughts?

    If the centerfold were attached, I would say 8.0. I'm not very experienced with grading books that have a detached centerfold, but I will guess 7.0. What a fantastic book!

    Any other thoughts on a grade before I reveal?

    I am guessing 9.0 based on a couple spine ticks, something on the bottom right of the front cover, and then the back right corner of the back cover looks to have a little damage but it is blurry so I don't know for sure. If the wrap is truly a manufacturing defect, I do not think they will hit you for that.

    Yes, his signature has never been great, but when you have thousands of books thrown in front of you each day of a con, I'd imagine it's easy to start scribbling. This one happened to be back in January 2017.

    This is a signature series. I'll reveal the grade a little later tonight...or tomorrow morning.

    Apologies. I didnt realize you actually have a pretty good picture showing the spine split. I'll go with 5.0. Looks like you could really clean up that back cover and maybe get a small bump.

    I'm thinking 8.5. I don't see any writing or a hole near his hammer. Maybe some dirt. If there's a hole, I will change my grade.

    How long is the split on the spine? Can't tell from the pictures.
  13. Motor City Rob
    8.0

    Please pay special attention to the lower right corner of the front cover. It looks like a crease, but when I look at the inside of the cover it is perfectly clean. Is this a printing defect? I will add some close up pictures to help out.

    We shall find out....in like 6 months!!!

    Lol. Appreciate the feedback.
  17. Motor City Rob
    Really? I was thinking closer to 7.0, based on the heavy spine stress marks and the stain on the lower back cover.
  18. Motor City Rob
    Is the centerfold detached at the top staple? Hard to tell from the picture, but looks like it may be.
