comichut Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 My only JIM, and I'm so glad that I get to keep it now... Your JIM #83 is a beauty!!! How high will the JIM #83 6.0oww on Ebay go?!! Last time I checked the high bid was just a little over $5K!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twistty1 Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 (edited) I'm surprised that it has gone that high. Most of the latest sales have plateaued around 4200 to 4400...and both of those were really nice looking old labels..

Fantastic Thor Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 where did you get the special matting from? I would like to do that with a piece from one of my Batman pages Actually got it done at Micheals when they had their 60% off sale. Wanted to get the UV glass etc... It is the month / year I was born so wanted to get it done right. Thanks for the kind words Thor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trmoore54 Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 I put up my copy of JIM 109 awhile back which has XLNT appeal for the grade and received comments mostly along the lines that the markings in the THOR title were some type of storage ink transfer...I still have no idea and I've owned this book since approx. 1969...see below... So I thought it was interesting when I spotted this CGC-graded 9.0 on the current Clink auction and it had very similar markings Can it be surmised that there was some production-related aspect to this book...seriously, I've felt all along that this was some aspect of production ink on my book and not an aspect of wear or poor storage...

VintageComics Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 There are a few books that are very commonly found with this defect. Daredevil #7 is another. Ink transfer like this happens because the ink is still wet as the comics are coming off the presses and being stacked. CGC does not downgrade much for it at least up into the 9.4 range as far as I know. Hope this helps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does the printing on the back of the book match up with the ink transfer that was left on the front; if so, this would further support your wet ink transfer comments...
