The spirit of '76 day!!!

 

First I think I'll cap off Silver's usual awesome Superman Family spread with one from the main man himself......

 

Sorry for the crummy copy...the stain at the mid spine is so sickening...... :sick:

 

Superman76.jpg

 

I post one of the most exspensive books today....perhaps one of the most significant #76's of any title........and nobody notices? (shrug)

 

:cry:

 

I'm not sure I think the paint smude detracts from it's overall apppeal....it's a beautiful copy of a very key book. I do think though that CGC would hammer it hard for that. They have killed me over 1/8 inch stains on the back cover...

 

Nice copy Keith! (thumbs u

 

Oh, and one other thing... :shy:

 

You should consider using paper over your copy board to take away the copy board lines, I think it would leave the picture with a better overall viewing quality than the grey background with white line. Just my 2c

Oh, I'm sorry SD, I didn't know that was a special issue - just looks like Clark & Bruce to me...to be important it should be B'wana Beast & the Maniacs or maybe the Inferior 5 & Fox & Crow...right?

Well...2 reasons why I use the copy grid. Quick placement for shooting. And....it's obvious that every single book I own was shot in this format. No one can say that's someone else's photo. I kind of like the boarder myself...I know it's not grand ..but it serves a purpose. A little late for me to change as I have shot well over 2000 books (front and back) the past few weeks. (shrug)

 

Wonder if the paint smudge can be removed? Anyhow..I prefer paying a VG price for this copy than one with the general wear of a vg book. Course I probably paid more than VG for it. Seems like it was $500. Perhaps I way overpaid.........

# 76 - A two-fer actually. I pulled both Airboy 75 & 76 which should go together since they are the usual case of a continued story :o Airboy # 75 announces the completion in the next issue. Quite unusual in the GA era and what kid wouldn't love a story with dinosaurs and big construction equipment.
