Gorgeous books JP! The colors are bright and vibrant on both copies with fantastic eye appeal

Bright, vibrant colors are blinding me Very nice!

Very sweet #10, that looks newsstand fresh to me! Colors are popping Underappreciated book too.

Another gorgeous copy! Great colors on that book!

Hey TothAmon, those are some very pretty triplets!

Your #28 is a beauty JP! This cover has always fascinated me. Maybe it's due to the dark colors with the beautiful imagery. I had been thinking of upgrading my issue, but with the nosebleed prices being realized I'm content with mine:

The 9.6 ended up selling for $32,000.00 The 9.0 ended at $4140.00 Anyone care to share their #28's?

Don't forget Princess Python

+1 Is there a photo of the 9.8's back cover?

If anyone is interesting in re-reading the first 17 issues plus the Annual, this is a great read. Not every story was a winner though, but Stan was still getting into his groove with Spidey. How Sandman was beaten with a vacuum cleaner is beyond me

Top and bottom edges look painfully sliced and diced

I remember reading in some older threads where board members had identified a specific series of bar code #'s, which reflected tighter graded books during that period. I found it very interesting and even wrote down one such series that had been discussed: barcodes starting with 093 to 097 as very tightly graded. I'm sure other boardies have information such as this, and of course it is subjective, but I find it quite enlightening to hear from others about their thoughts and observations on tighter and looser grading periods (or barcode series #'s which are identified as such)

That is a tightly graded 8.0! It's a beaut

Now that is a beautiful book! Gorgeous colors and a great Ditko cover The yellows look vibrant, congrats!

Thanks Mike! Lots of great books in this thread. Jeff's Spidey #14 is amazing!

Out of curiosity, are all of Jon's books being pressed prior to CGC grading?

Thank you!

I'm very happy with this pick up. No Marvel chipping or tears, and one of my favorite villains:

Now that's a beauty! Amazing book

Man, that was a beautiful book! And perfectly centered too, great pick up!

Empire Collectibles run by Bob is a great choice! The only other one that comes to mind is Southern California Comics.

Very nice! Great pedigree copy!

Picked up a "Green River" book (one of my favorite pedigrees):

Do you or anyone else happen to have a photo of it when it was a 7.5??
