Flaming_Telepath Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 I just got a paper cut from the corners on that scan. Nice book Nick! Thanks, matey! Is somebody asked what sort of books I look for, this one would be the perfect example. It's a NM- all day long (and would get a 9.4/9.6 if submitted by Brulato, Schmell or Heritage) with almost perfect registration and decent page quality. The fact that it was a Northland (I love those certificates!) just made it all the more sweet. Got a scan of the Cert? It sounds like the Cert is almost as cool as the book itself Yup! Here ya go....

namisgr Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 Love the Northland, and its got much better registration than most copies of X26. Here is a Slobodian pedigree book with a cool Kirby cover, nice registration and staple placement, great colors and white pages: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is a Slobodian pedigree book with a cool Kirby cover, nice registration and staple placement, great colors and white pages: Bob, X-Men #25 and #26 were both generally wrapped by chimps, I figure, so this one was a no-brainer when I saw the registration. And that FF #50 is frickin' gorgeous! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I notice that there are in fact 2 different Northland Certificates. From Memory one of my Northland books only mention either Marvel or D.C on the Cert. My other Northlands mention both companys on the Certificate. Regards, Russ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DKB Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 Welcome to the Green River Strange Tales 138 club! I'm a card carrying member, and I know Red Hook is. Yours looks like it might be a tad nicer than mine. Mine's a piddly VF+. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Hook Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 I've got two slabbed copies....a 9.4 (that I bought off of nochips and slabbed myself) and a 9.0. That one looks like a 9.4 to me. I think Deathlok may have one too. Red Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Hook Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 (edited) At about 11am PST, I should have all of Jason's new Greenies loaded up into the database......

Red Hook Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 (edited) I never told you? I think I've mentioned it on the boards a couple times. BTW....you described it as a possible 9.4 in your auction. You said.... "Near Mint 9.4 or better!!!" You were right on the money. That's why I listed you as one of the top graders on the boards in the competition a few months ago.

sckao Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 I don't think the copy Jason has is a 9.4 really... I should have every Green River I have left scanned in by this weekend and I'll be generating COAs for them at the same time... If anyone purchased any Green Rivers from me and would like a Certificate, please let me know. (We can trace most of them easily anyway... like the ST 138 I sold to NoChips which was then sent to Redhook.. who then slabbed it and got a 9.4. ) Or the Thors that were sold to ComicCollector shop and then sold to a board member, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DKB Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 I got to my Captain Marvels while sorting out the mid-grade stuff and came across some books that just...popped...for lack of a better word, and, flip em over, and there's the Bowling Green cert. Suuuuch a bright cover on this one in person. Seeing books like this next to the rest of the books in my collection remind me why I seek out pedigrees.

namisgr Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 Thx for sharing a Bronze Age Bowling Green. From around 1965 onward, this pedigree has the most stunning quality of cover color preservation I have ever seen - even high grade copies of the same ish can look dull in side-by-side comparison.
