Purchased at megacon. Does have a printers' ink splotch on an interior page which doesnt affect the story and the black lines on the first page (barely visible on the lower right lateral side) are store spray. I had a wide range of opinions, but took the plunge and bought it with high hopes. I appreciate all opinions.

The scans are a tad small to see the details.

[TheUrologist]

there we go.

[oakman29]

That's a really nice looking copy 8.0/8.5,beautiful.

[Aces]

8.0 dust shadow scares me from going higher but ya never know...

[NuffSaid57]

7.5/8.0

[Dark Knight]

8.5

[ROBTOTHEC]

That looks like it could easily be an 8.5 in hand. REALLY SWEET!!!

 

[TheUrologist]

Thanks. I figured 8.0. The book is a beauty if there's no missed subtle restoration. There was a question about trimming. The dealer bought a collection and we found some books that had been color touched. Im just not great at spotting trimming. Will have this graded so we will eventually get a verdict. Consensus at the show was but you never know.

[Ghost Rider]

8.0 Trimmed. But I hope you get a clean bill of health. Keep us posted.

[Ditch Fahrenheit]

That's a really nice looking copy 8.0/8.5,beautiful.

 

+1

 

I agree with the worries about trimming. Hope it's not.

[cpannell]

A beautiful book. An easy 8.0 and possibly higher. Good luck on the submission.

[TheUrologist]

I meant to say consensus was not trimmed... That included a few notables from the boards looking at in person so fingers crossed.

7.5/8.0 - for sale?

[TheUrologist]

I'd be more apt to trade post grade. I just bought the 9.0 that sold on eBay a few weeks back so this book became trade material. And I will have it pressed prior to grading so I suspect the 8.5 is quite attainable. I'm not a dealer and very rarely sell books. I'm def open to negotiations...

[Peter Loves Gwen]

Very nice book.

 

I'm in a similar boat, I have a #3 out to be pressed and graded, hoping for a 9.0 like my #2. Cross our fingers.

[TheUrologist]

I do my own pressing... Saves me time n money
