Grail acquired

[Transplant]

Well folks. After a couple of months of negotiating and thanks to the strengthening US$, I was finally able to cajole Tim (tth2) into selling me what may the holy grail for Uncle Scrooge collectors. I'm going to give it a quick press and resubmit in hopes of a PQ bump. Thanks again Tim.

Why would you resubmit the book in hopes of a "bump" if you bought it for yourself and not for resale? That's something a label collector might do, but it would indeed be strange for a comic fan.

 

I'd just break it out of its plastic prison and keep it as is. It's a fabulous book.

Who the heck would negotiate for months to get their hands on a duck book?

 

[jgallo]

Ducks rule. You have to love early duck books just from a history stand point.

 

Sure they might not be the hot superhero books we all love but without the ducks there might not be so many superhero titles.

 

Great looking book and I see no point in pressing it at all.

Because it's my book and I can do what I want with it.

 

Remind me to threadcrap on your posts as well.

Well, yes, that goes without saying - but raising the subject on a discussion forum generally implies that you'd like inquiries/commentary.

Congrats on landing the book if this is not an April fool's day hoax.

 

Good luck with the press - hopefully you get a grade bump along with the PQ bump.

Even my buddy Bill, who chastised someone else for not realizing it was a joke, got caught up this year. This was almost verbatim the post I made a previous year.
