Wow, I know it is an old thread, but I just came across this and ... wow ... This "gobbledygook" I've always felt is really only truly collectible as original art, because with the "mini-comic" you would never actually know if you're looking at an "original" because the originals themselves were just photocopies. The TMNT #1 first printing was the first actual comic book that Eastman & Laird printed; what preceded that (i.e. Gobbledygook) was literally xerox photocopied. [ More info: http://tmntcomics.wordpress.com/ ] That's why CGC had never received an original, and changed their label attributions on TMNT #1 once they found out that Gobbledygook was not a real comic book. Literally changed the value of TMNT #1 once the industry (and price guides) switched over the attribution in the 2004 timeframe. Congrats on acquiring this artwork, it is awesome.
