Hedge Collector Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 Does anyone have a link to that CL 9.0 sale? Or does the page no longer exist? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tth2 Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 Does anyone have a link to that CL 9.0 sale? Or does the page no longer exist? CL sets up their system so that the link no longer exists, except for the winner. I can only see the result by looking at my bidding history on CL, but when I click on the auction link it's a dead link. CL clearly have no desire to provide the same kind of archival service that Heritage does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

showcase22gr1959 Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 SC 22 really is a GREAT book, regardless of the current hype etc (thumbs u I agree. Regardless of what SC22 does in terms of value and demand, it's a significant book to own. Currently, it's enjoying a surge in demand and recognition.Also, It's the debut of a great character, not abundant compare to some other Silver Age book out there, and made to a movie. Nonetheless, it's a great way to bring collectors and dealers to share and enjoy their hobby. (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeddieMercede Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 Wow, no new posts since the football talk yesterday. I guess this book is slowing down. http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?id=4583642 Officiating crew suspended. Having watched the 2nd half of that game, especially the drive that FL had when they scored the TD to tie the game at 20, it was an embarrassment. Non existent pass interference call, roughing penalties etc. Just goes to show how difficult it is to win on the road in hostile environments in college football where the quality of officiating is as good as MLB umpires in these playoffs. (I won't mention some of the problems we have had i.e Oregon 2007 which is the pinnacle of referee ineptitude) Anybody have a low grade copy of Showcase 22 and wouldnt mind scanning the interior pages ? Think it would be a neat thing to see the storyline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it would be a neat thing to see the storyline. the PI call was legit (can't have your back to the ball and make contact ), the PF against the Ark lineman I didn't see and the official admitted to making a mistake...

TeddieMercede Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 Rick, i respectfully disagree and think you should watch the PI call again. The DB clearly turns his head and body around a good 2-3 seconds before the balls lands. There were also big questions surrounding the next play after the roughing where the refs clearly mis-spotted the ball. Not saying FL wouldnt have won anyway (they probably would have).

It was close, but the DB made an attempt to locate the ball and turned his head and shoulders to find it before it arrived. As long as I have been watching football (I played throughout high school and a little in college) to me what happened just isnt pass inteference, otherwise DB's would never be able to cover a WR. There was some hand fighting on both sides. That being said it wasnt the most egregious call and we both know how subjective PI calls are, it was just that call in conjunction with the next 2 that makes it seem worse then it is. If it occurred at a different point in the game nobody would be talking about it. Anybody got a Showcase 22 interior they can scan ?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G.A.tor Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 that is always my point...1 call should never make or break a game... now, a series of bad calls can surely have an effect... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimik Posted October 22, 2009 Author Share Posted October 22, 2009 Okay, enough sidetracking. Who actually has a raw SC #22 that is willing to post the interior pages? Unfortunately, on these boards an unslabbed copy of any key is probably a rare item! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, they lost the game. - Arkansas hillbilly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showcase22gr1959 Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 That is one of the best interiors you will ever see or find! I will scan the full interior of my coverless copy and when I have it I will show it to the club. (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
