from my long boxes there is near mint and there is near drek  

 

As the comics that introduced me to collecting as a 7 year old, Harvey comics from 1975 are the gems of my collection. Many of the issues had zero file copies and are very rare in high grade. I even have a WTB thread for them! Drek? Never!

I have a weak spot for these too👍‼️

Finally got a nice ASM 121, at a decent price, today.  Looks like a 7.0 and may bump up nicely with a good press

Maybe my biggest desire right now in the hobby.

Congratulations.

I’m surprised both covers are 7.0 usually one is better or worse🤔

Ya usually or it seems that way, I think that was part of the attraction for me actually. I have some double covers where the 1st grade is several grades lower. When they're more equal makes sense to me.

I'm not a big fan of normal multiple cover books where outer cover is worst grade.  Why pay 9.6 money for a book that displays as 9.0  is my feeling.

Exactly -- a book like that is better off with the outer cover (carefully) removed.

Had a fun show today and picked up some cool early Bronze Two-Gun Kid issues (sorry for the less than awesome pic).

A new file copy added to my relatively small Harvey collection (I really only collect the issues from 1974-75, when I was seven years old and Richie Rich's #1 fan). High grade copies of many of these issues can be hard to find! This particular issue has only five graded copies with only one (9.6) higher than this one.
