The Silver-Age Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 My latest addition... Unless there is damage we can't see, I think you got hosed on the grade!!! Looks a LOT nicer than a 9.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trmoore54 Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 My latest addition... Unless there is damage we can't see, I think you got hosed on the grade!!! Looks a LOT nicer than a 9.0 I won it recently on a Heritage weekly Sunday auction...I absolutely agree this book is a 9.2 at worst...there is a little blemish on the spine just to the left of Thor's right hand...just barely breaks color...miniscule...otherwise the spine is perfectly plump...corners are dead perfect both front and back covers...back cover bottom margin has some light pencil...some kid doing a math problem 12x16/192...very light...big deal... Not a single crease or rumple, front or back cover...I've got 9.4s that don't look this nice! I'm gonna call for the notes on this one and will report back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Korvac Saga Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 My latest...chippin' away at the JIM-stone... Cool book Tom!

namisgr Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 That's a great copy, Tom, and shows why 9.2s are arguably the best bargain in the high grade SA market/insanity. With perfect centering, great cover colors and page quality, staples right on the spine where they belong, and only the most minute of defects to keep it from grading higher, the book is gorgeous. Plus, it's a classic tale of the origins of the Prince of Mischief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this case (and in many cases) this 9.2 is a tick and a rub away from a 9.4 at, on average, 25-50% of the cost of the 9.4. I'm plugging along upgrading my set with a goal of JIM 83-99 7.0 and better and 100-125 9.0 or better... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
