There is a Toledo pedigree??  Or am I misunderstanding this?

Keep in mind I am learning here, so very interested in this.

I believe the Toledo books are one of those former pedigrees that might possibly no longer be recognized by CGC as one of their current official pedigrees.  hm  (shrug)

I posted this in the NS pedigree thread but never got an answer, maybe you all could help: can anybody help confirm if the issue of More Fun Comics #70 I have is a Nova Scotia pedigree? 

There is a very obvious M on the cover, though hard to see in my photos. It almost seems like a previous own might have slightly erased it during cleaning (as the part that overlaps the red ink in the title is noticeably darker, as if it wasn't touched)?

It was sent to CGC and they did not mark it as such (I have no documentation)

For comparison here's the Nova Scotia MF 57.

A friend of mine won this Flame 2 in the recent Fox auction. On looking at it I immediately noticed the "SN" notation, and thought he might have a Cookeville pedigree.  Any thoughts on this?  Also has a really cool store stamp on it, almost perfectly placed on the lighter rectangle area.  Of course the stamp mentions "Brooklyn" which wouldn't jive with the TN location.   And the initials don't look like many of the others I have seen.

Looks like a Cookeville to me.

some of my silver age upgrade acquisitions required that i liquidate some books i kinda needed in other runs.  peds were among them.  here is a replacement hawkeye and aurora for the ped-typeset.  yes, the divested ones were better books!   these will just have to do unless/until nicer ones fall into my lap.  at least the aurora is an iron jaw cover.

still a few short, and may never get a replacement kansas city.

I think Billy had stopped buying new comics by the time that one hit the stands.
