  1. What do you mean with "stewardship"? " the careful and responsible management of something entrusted to one's care"
  2. It is sad to think that incredible pedigree collections like this may not have the same stewardship embodied here going into the future.
  3. What do you think would be the ball park price for a Tec 35 with 3 inch spine split professionally repaired no other restoration in 4.5-5.5 grade?
  4. It's not a matter of believe it, I have nothing to gain or lose. I am simple recounting what I did and what happened.
  5. A couple of years ago I received a CGC comic in the mail, I live in Regina Sk Canada and it was a typical cold winter day. The slab I received was a comic for my personal collection so it is/was cracked out. Brought the slab in "directly from the cold" and put a butter knife on the side to spread it open, usually a post breaks or the plastic cracks, the posts popped out perfectly and I removed the contents and they popped back together. Not sure if it was the extreme cold and there was a possible contraction of the inner post or ?, but regardless it was undetectable. Maybe they could have a fail safe system where they have the CGC cert# etched on the case somewhere to make sure that both numbers correlate
  6. I actually picked it up probably around 4-5 years ago from fee bay. Alway's wanted a copy but was never able to find a affordable copy in high grade. I sure won't be able to now
