Picked this up at C2E2 today. I've always been a fan of Jenny Frison's work and it was impossible to resist buying when I saw it sitting at her booth.

Great get.  Love this cover.  Have a 9.8 copy already signed by Tynion and Dell'Edera that I sent in to CGC to be signed by Frison.  As best I can tell, there are no copies with all three signatures but my research has been limited. Pray it comes back still a 9.8 or I will 😭😭😭😭😭.

The book was officially "received" by CGC on 12/30/21 and I got it back yesterday.  Can't recall how long they had it before it got entered into their system.  As for the 9.2 tag, I did not pay extra for that though I did pay extra for the label and I think the tag came with it.   

Very happy with the final result.

Took forever to get back from CGC but, as promised, here is the graded book.  Thanks to everyone here, can't say I was surprised with grade.  On to the next one!

(On a side note, how do you change topic name to say "Grade Is In"??)

Thanks all for the feedback and suggestions. Went back and forth and decided to submit for Miller signing since I want this one for me. Also submitting my graded 9.6 Daredevil 181 and will post back on what the grade comes back as. 

I submitted my 9.8 DD 181.  If it comes back less than 9.8 with yellow label I am going to cry!  Not sure if you know the answer, but FedEx delivered the package to CGC on 11/11. That means I should be okay, right, given it had to be received by 11/12?

Really nice copy!!  Puts my my 1.8 to shame.

Bought it off the shelf when it came out...read it and bagged it.

Very jealous!! I sent three ASM 361s in not too long ago and they came back 9.6, 9.6, and 9.4.  Soooo close!! 

I have same book (minus the signature) that was graded 7.0.  Yours does look slightly better than mine, especially the corners, but both books have multiple spine ticks and general wear.  My not so educated guess is an 8.0 and maybe an 8.5 depending on how it looks after C&P.  Good luck!

Appreciate everyone's feedback.  We'll see what happens and I will report back in the fall! 

All I know is I have that book and it was graded a 4.0 and your copy looks better than mine did.

That case is not suitable for shipping. The card should be removed and put into a penny sleeve and card saver.

Thanks, Paul.  Figured that would be the case but wanted to make sure.  Like I said, hasn't been touched since 85 but that will have to change.

A pretty popular book in this forum. Lost out on a few auctions before I got my hands on this one at a real good price. Looks like a real nice copy with Tattooz intact.  Will be sent to be pressed before sending to CGC. 

Thanks!

Bueller.....Bueller.....Bueller????

Is this an improper question to ask???

As you can see, this Donruss Don Mattingly rookie card is in a case.  The card has been that way since I got it in 1985.  So no human hands have touched this card in 36 years.  Can I send it like this to be graded or must I remove it from the case first??

Thank you!

That's a really nice looking copy.  Better than most I've seen for sale.  Only issue looks to be bottom left corner and it may be nothing.  Definitely in the 9s to this untrained eye.  

Appreciate the input from everyone. Will be sure to report back when I get the slab.

Thanks for catching that!

I have same book and mine came in at 7.0.  Your copy looks better than mine did, even after I got it pressed, so I am going to go with high 7s, maybe slightly higher.

Got for a decent price on eBay and curious what you guys think.  A few spine ticks and that top left corner makes me very sad.   

I have three of them that are going through quality control right now. Hope I do as well as you did!

Very nice. Great book!

Thanks for the input, guys. Hope you are right. I'll be sure and follow up after I get this and my other books back from CGC.

Will be sending this one and a few others to be cleaned and pressed in the next week or two.  Will definitely follow up with results.  Hope I have them before Christmas! 

Congrats!  Always appreciate when people follow up with what the eventual grade turns out to be.
