spracknetch23 Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 I think that black ink could be an indicator of some amateur restoration, but someone else would know better than I. If so, that would lower the value. If it isn't, I'd agree with somewhere between $3-4k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ianrush95 Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 How can I tell if its amateur restoration doesn't look like there is any on the cover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red_Hood Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 How can I tell if its amateur restoration doesn't look like there is any on the cover That bleed through into the cover's interior is 100% amateur color touch. Tough to price a restored key book like this, especially without knowing an accurate grade for the book and prices fluctuate drastically between grades on this book in particular.

DavidTheDavid Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 I guess you folks know that you can buy some TMNT issues from Mirage Studios still as they are closing down shop. I just picked some up. See Mirage Licensing. Nothing crazy good, but might feel in your back issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
