  3. Trimpe and Severin GOD BLESS.... -jimbo(a friend of jesus) Severin was my favorite inker on Trimpe. I once asked him at a show about Severin's inking, since he had such a strong style, and Herb thought those pages looked great as well.
  4. If anybody thinks that because he now discloses SOME restoration on SOME books that he is disclosing ALL restoration on ALL books, you haven't done your research.
  5. 2.0, and incomplete. You're missing the last page. One side is the second half of the letters page and on the back of it is an ad for WWII soldiers. That's what been cut out, not a piece of the back cover.
  6. Sub crease was once an automatic 4.0, but I've seen many go higher if the book was otherwise nicer. With all the wear on this I can't see it pulling higher 4.0.

  8. I consider acid free boxes overkill. My books are stored in Mylar with acid free full backs or half backs plus some slabs. Whatever off-gassing my regular cardboard storage boxes do is minimal and not a concern. Countless collections have lasted decades in cardboard boxes and I'll be gone or my funnybooks will before the comics disintegrate.
  9. Until shipping and handling returns to normal with the USPS, mailing packages any other way is almost asking for trouble.
  10. I know she had some kind of limiting accident, then posted a bit, and I think disappeared. We used to trade books and PMs quite a bit. I thought she passed away after the accident; it was a head injury IIRC. Her ebay account was deactivated and I seem to recall her husband posting a notice on the Boards; I might be misremembering though.
