I was worried I was going to have to return it when it opened to page 13. Took me nearly 15 minutes to find pictures of X men 50 interior and figure out what was happening. It is very nice. A little distributor ink up top but probably a solid 7.5-8.5 white pages. I would have kept it also, neat find I admire yalls pluck, as I too would have to say yay or nay, but I collect mostly for slabs; since this would receive a green label I'd be in trouble. I collect niche stuff too, but this would weigh heavy but "from my collecting habits" or I can say specifically with this book, and due to the qualified label, no? Or am I mistaken (for my own benefit if it were happen to me?) ? It is a neat perspective in that it meets a niche, and yet, with values? As op said it'd have weighed heavy.

Yeah probably green but not all green labels are worth less when it comes to rare manufacturing defects. Might be harder to find a buyer but it's rare and I'll happily keep it.

Popular Post marvelmaniac Posted February 7 Popular Post Share Posted February 7 Received this book as a gift back in the early 80's, the 1st story should be 37 pages, after page 24, pages 1-24 were placed in the book again instead of pages 25-37. littledoom, mysterymachine, ADAMANTIUM and 3 others 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gooshball Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Any idea when Manufacturing Errors became notes with blue labels? I was expecting to see green with this but I am happy its blue. mysterymachine, littledoom and OtherEric 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuraddoRun Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 This is the ugliest wrapped/cut book I've ever seen in person. Found at Half Price Books with a dollar sticker price. Worth it! LOL OtherEric, Get Marwood & I, littledoom and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pens666 Posted May 6 Share Posted May 6 I was wondering if anyone has seen this error, inside front and back covers completely blank..? Also, will CGC give it a blue label? And do you think the value changes with the error? Thanks in advance... icp004 and littledoom 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s a whole bunch of Dell titles from May of ‘54 that had some of their interior covers run blank like this, where others of the same titles had adds printed. I have a Little Lulu from that “batch” that looks like that, I don’t hold out much hope that it affects the value very much. Your book may be more unique with this particular defect than mine though. littledoom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking the Batman is a manufacturing error. But what also strikes me is that it looks like a Canadian Price Variant, given the $1.00 price tag on the front cover. Is the inside back cover also blank? littledoom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My friend just weighed in and said that his Canadian variant of BM 399 has normal inside front cover and normal inside back cover.

pens666 Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 Yes Cpt Kirk, it is a Canadian price variant, which is rare in itself, was just curious if this error might make it more valuable. It is going out to CGC next week, I am going to place a note on it to ensure they make note of the error.. (looking back at this thread, it appears that manufacturing errors are given blue labels now...I would not grade it if I'm going to get the green label...)

Green label would indicate a notation of why it was green, or do they do the same with a blue? Also, is this to be slabbed due to the price, book, or notation if any? No right or wrong, just curious of the philosophical bent Iconic1s 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
