KryptoSpidey Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Cool! The top part of the scan looked fabulous and then the book got weaker toward the bottom. I will get better scans once it's in hand.It has some resto supposedly also,but for the price,i'm happy to have another 22 with great eye appeal...much better than the handful of 2.0 +/- Showcase 22's i have and have had lately.

Boba Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 I'm back in! Talk about separated at birth . . . I present my new acquisition, or "this is what your book would look like in a slab." The miswrap is indeed, ahem, distracting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boba Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 This is my 4.5 after being re-subbed and receiving a PQ bump. I found it hard to adjust the colors to the way they appear on the book, without it getting too dark. The green of GL's costume always looks too yellow in my scans. So, keep in mind the phots here are darker than they appear in person, but the colors are truer, if anyone call follow this logic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KryptoSpidey Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Can pretty much guarantee my book is Trimmed looking at the edges and the art work placement....but i can live with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since Bob made a comparison, it looks like it. Are you still planning to get the resto removed and have it graded?

Boba Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Congrats! That is one darn nice looking 5.0. That one is the 4.5 but yeah, that one's nice too. In fact, I really, really thought it was a 5.0, but CGC disagreed. The PQ bump was nice though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know your SC22 is a little mis-cut and at the bottom of GL foot the image is missing more if you compare to Bob's copy. I really hope it's not though since with some resto removal maybe a 4.0-5.0.

In comparison, a SC24 is well known for cream PQ due to poorer paper used. So I pick a SC22 cream for a PQ bump over a SC24 PQ bump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top edge and right are what i think are cut. Way too much edge missing up at the comic code corner compared to whats showing at the bottom and spine...his foot is cut off the bottom edge,which means there should be blue above the comic code box.
