This thread's been quiet for a couple of days, so I figured I'd post this Harvey that I picked up a month or so ago:

 

Jimbo that book has been pressed has it not? :baiting:

 

I hope not! It is possible based on the recent slab date. I don't have the book in hand yet; I asked Heritage to wait to ship it because it's extremely hot in Texas this time of year, and I didn't want it baking in the back of a FedEx truck.

 

I thought 0006 books were the ones that had gone through ccs paper first? Or is that some other tier?

I don't know much about the slab numbering. If there's a way to tell from the number that a book has been pressed, I'd definitely like to know so that I can avoid those issues. I checked through my books - I have one other issue with a 0006 number, and the CGC website says it was graded 7/25/2000, even though it's in a new-style holder. (So I guess it was re-holdered at some point?)

 

If you can't look at the book itself and "tell", then it doesn't, and should not, matter one whit.

So, the other day, I ... picked up this one... (It was a consignment item, so the chances of my actually getting it are probably 50/50.)

 

The book arrived today, so apparently not all consignment listings are obsolete. (Who knew?)

 

I wanted one Crowley File Copy for my collection, and now I have one.
