I do not keep up with what has been posted here but here are some Timelys (The cap has a tremendous double page splash....)

 

 

jb...can you post your cap 1 and marvel 1 :wishluck:

 

My Cap 1 is on loan at the Montclair Museum Exhibition.....

 

Yowzaaa!!! Nice book JB! Outstanding! Whats the 411 on your copy? Its very pretty.

Bone white pages (unusual for Timelys)...supple, bright, BUT (and you knew there would be a "but"), the upper left corner a triangular piece removed with a small pieces in first four pages, probably by the newsstand when opening the bundle with a razor. Piece of cover is 'married". first four pages fixed (not in artwork) Work done by Bill Sarrill in (gulp) 1983. A glorious book which I am quite content with.

what's the resto status? slight? none? it looks like a real beauty to me! :applause:

 

I am not sure, I know it has some, but I think just a few very small fill pieces, and the CT to match, clean job?? My guess Minor/Mod PRO, very good work! No color shows through at all, I can find it, but its very hard to see. My guess on grade would be around 9.0/9.2 OW/WP

I inspected this book quite closely last year, when I first started collecting timely's...and was going to buy it, but xavier logan had a copy at ponscon too, that was just a little cheaper, so I passed on Bedrocks...but, I still have my notes... 8.5 with ow pages and moderate resto (that is how I graded it last year)...it is a beautttttttttt

congrats schomy

I actually compared it to a freshly cracked 8.5 MF 53, and they looked identical...hence, I went with 8.5, but you have book in hand, so you know better than I :) ...for some reason, restored books tend to grade about .5 less than they "appear"
