I have seen a lot more books for sell that are blue label but appear to have had restoration removed.  I attached a scan of the Batman 9 that just closed in the CLINK auction. There is a Hulk 1 for sell some place that has restoration removed too but I cant find it now.

I didn't even know this was a thing until I read it on these boards a few months ago. Now that I'm looking I see it all over the place. There was s low grade FF1 on Ebay that looked like resto removal a few months back and I couldn't help but think about how nice it must have looked before the scrape job.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
