BlowUpTheMoon

I have a double cover book where the outer cover has no staple holes.

I went back through 458 pages of your posts and found your first one here.

The old "Classic Threads in CGC Forum History" got deleted for unknown reasons.Luckily, Google archived it here. I fixed the formatting as best as I could.

Complete with pictures. Every once and a while someone will post the golf cover. Link anyone? Someone who remembers this do a search for it and post a link here. This must have been when I was on hiatus. Link for the lazy! Originally Posted By: CaptainOfIndustry My personal, all-time favorite is Tom Brulato's first board appearance. Locked, but not lost: X-Men 94 CGC 9.6 Originally Posted By: Boozad Originally Posted By: EffEffBee Originally Posted By: Rocketeer ...someone has to post "The wheels are in motion"... I looked for that one before the Ewert thread but gave up when a couple of searches didn't turn it up. I'll try again. I think I still have the pic that RedHook Photoshopped of Ian and Vinny on tricycles (which we made into T-shirts). I have seen Bonds25 sport his shirt in convention photos. Classic stuff. Here you go! Originally Posted By: Boozad Here's my favourite, the big divot that was TFL outs his own shill and gets himself banned. Classic stuff.

No one sticks out in my mind but it has been so long... Not sure how many of those threads are still around. He may be a crook but he did make for some entertaining reading The one that sticks out to me is where I was ripping on Matt Stanley by comparing him to comic-keys and the *spoon* came here as an anonymous poster and we figured out who he was. This is his first board appearance...he calls himself "Methuselah" in the thread, and that was his board name before it was Hammer: http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=2063&fpart=1 Originally Posted By: dog_welder PCS Information and Message Board Conduct http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php/ubb/showflat/Number/966745/site_id/1#import Boy Comics # 17 New Thread http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php/ubb/showflat/Number/1065511/site_id/1#import heritage/cage marvel mystery 33 was CGC 8.0, now CGC 9.2 http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=57819&fpart=1 Steve Borock explains CGC's policies on disassembly and reassembly http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php/ubb/showflat/Number/1433649/site_id/1#import Response from Steve and CGC (Ewert) http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php/ubb/showflat/Number/947557/site_id/1#import Originally Posted By: BlowUpTheMoon Originally Posted By: oakman29 How about the guy that traded his Tale of Suspense 39 for a set of rims for his non existent 69 Camero.HAHAHhahahaha!

I think I'll bookmark this page, it's like a portal to greatness.

You remind me of capfreak... I thought the same thing.

That has to be one of my favorite FF covers ever. Kirby greatness, superb balance, the stark white background and grey buildings for contrast, and just a whole lot of legendary heroes going at it... Forgive my ignorance, but who is the guy in the top left (to the left of The Thing) in the green shirt?

This thread has educated me.

Did we just lose Justin's "Trading" thread?

I remember the Five Star Ratings and I got here early in 2007.

Or a good Photoshopper.

Great signature placement on each one.

I looked at six copies last weekend at the Steel City Con. All had the same problem.

Damn.
