It's got very obvious resto in the lower right corner. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Amazing-Spider-Man-1-3-63-Silver-Age-Marvel-Comics-1st-J-JONAH-JAMESON-Stan-Lee/152886319037?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649 This ended up going for $7680 With that restored corner the best I see this grading at is around what?.... a Purple 4.0? If they take the corner off to get a blue label that would make it about a 3.0 Blue. Why are they paying so much for this??????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gadzukes Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 That's gorgeous. Do you think that might have been CT removal at the bottom? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say yes if you can't fill the hole with a 1963 copy or afford one. tv horror 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordysnordy Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 This book continues to pick up steam. The 8.0 on CL sold last night for $34555.00, 3K above the GPA high (there may be non recorded GPA that I'm not aware of). Knightsofold 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know how the back cover looks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Drummy Posted March 15, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 15, 2018 Hey all! Just paid this one off -- a small piece out of the back cover lowers the grade, but the front is 8.5 or so.

DCman Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Interesting results on the ASM #1s on Comiclink.......a 4.5 with great eye appeal sells for $11,450 while a 5.0 with some more obvious cover flaws sells for $7700. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed. Have two books ever looked so different though! Makes a mockery of the grading in a way, when you put them side by side: Eye appeal is where it's at nowadays Bomber-Bob and Omaha-CGC-Comics 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
