It was a nightmare to find a high grade copy. I see what you did there. oakman29 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its tied for the highest graded at 8.5 but I think its also the toughest Skywald to get. So I'm happy to settle for this one until a 9.0 or better copy ever surfaces. Nightmare 15 What a beaut! Where did you find it? Yes! I'm a nosy . oakman29 and Rip 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Artifiction Posted February 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 4, 2022 (edited) This arrived, today, direct from Batarag. The post office tried their best to destroy the book, but in the end, Batarag's superior packaging prevailed.

Just wanted to pick up this extra as both Wendy and Richard Pini are supposed to be at Pensacon . Really hope I can find a facilitator there. If not then I will still have it signed, but planned on a few if there will be one there. jimjum12, Artifiction and Randall Dowling 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post OtherEric Posted February 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 4, 2022 Found at a local store today. Not high grade, but at under $10 each I'm more than happy. They had the June issue as well but I've already got that in a box somewhere... Surfing Alien, oakman29, SAKI and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Stevemmg Posted February 5, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 5, 2022 Three great additions, and one massive disappointment. I should have know that when the Creepy 6 didn’t have a scan it would go south. Sorry for the lousy photos.

Stevemmg Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 (edited) There are three mags I’m thrilled with, but…..If you look at the upper right corner of the Creepy 6, all will become apparent. Beyond what I would consider excessive wear at the top and bottom edges on the spine side for this grade, the corner is folded over inside the case.

I'd call that copy a 7.5, which I bet is the source for disappointment. I recently bought a 9.6 book with an 8.5 in it... from the looks.

Stevemmg Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 I usually don’t buy without scans for just these reasons. These come up so rarely, I rolled the dice….. Snakeyes! Randall Dowling, jimjum12 and oakman29 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have graded it 8.5 as well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimjum12 Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 (edited) I used to pop a lot of slabs, and every now and then the posts would all remain intact on one.
