They may actually have nothing to do with one another,i just picture a book with low quality "Tan" pages having other "tanning problems" with the book....

Perhaps the 9.0 may be a PQ upgrade candidate via a review by CGC? (It is after all, an old label) But that, as has been discussed, carries certain risks.

Not only "Old Label",but graded 1/2000 in the first months CGC was open....the first books slabbed a month or so prior for dealers had NO PQ on them.... Something to think about....

showcase22gr1959 Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 The Bethlehem 9.0 (graded in 2000) is a cream pager and the Four color copy is an off-white. So this copy is the weakest 9.0 in terms of PQ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KryptoSpidey Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 I wonder who owns this copy. Good question.... Who bought the clink "Four Color" 24? Did the 22,23,24 all sell to the same person? I don't know much about that Clink sale... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

showcase22gr1959 Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 (edited) I wonder who owns this copy. Good question.... Who bought the clink "Four Color" 24? Did the 22,23,24 all sell to the same person? I don't know much about that Clink sale... I don't know, but it was mentioned here before that a high grade DC collector. I would love to see a better scan of the SC24 9.0 on CL right now. If the seller can provide another scan which is not the original scan from the Ebay...then maybe we all can determine a bit better. For now, I will presume the book has weak PQ. Edited December 20, 2010 by showcase22gr1959 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
