What I feel, if I had it earlier, the minute the price rose people would sell. Yes, to say long term feels a bit but also feels right Edited November 19, 2021 by ADAMANTIUM Microchip, FoggyNelson and ThothAmon 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder how CGC would treat these? First page = blue label With the possible notation of "name written on first page" then eat other in "ink" or "marker" Sometimes if the "name" Is legible, then cgc will notate the actual name "so and so written on first page" et Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADAMANTIUM Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 I'm not sure if you have to request that so and so's name be included on the label, but I know it IS possible for it to be done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both names quite legible, written in ink. Will definitely give CGC a call if I decide to send them in. Having names depicted on label would be ideal.

I've seen it done, but the circumstances elude me. Still blue label and something written in ink is for sure. It may be at the graders discretion But I'd call to get that info jokiing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OtherEric Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 So why is Destroyer Duck hot? Just a Groo upswing?

It would appear to be a groo: potential, nostalgia, opportunity; driven Pre CGC days. I've got a copy in storage somewhere, it was a dollar book. Same with Starslayer 4 & 5 and Groo the Wanderer #1... Nice copies of all 4, all dollar bin books. But I've also seen them on walls more than once over the years. (Well, not the Starslayer 4 as a wall book... but the other three.) Edited November 20, 2021 by OtherEric ADAMANTIUM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post jokiing Posted November 20, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 20, 2021 Took a while to figure out what box these were in since I pulled them awhile ago.
