Dick Pontoon Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Thanks! Yeah, a lot of other copies I came across were either buttrags or too nice for my budget. mysterio 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This one has eluded me in any grade above Fine. In fact, I think the best copy I have came from KirbyJack's liquidation sale. What's the last one you need?

Dick Pontoon Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 #14. Not so tough to find, I just haven’t been looking very actively. I didn’t do much buying last year, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post mysterio Posted May 7, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted May 7, 2019 Well, one of the books I was excited to receive (and the rarer one by far) has been lost in the mail. I've got both the seller and PO looking into it, so it turns up. In the meantime, I'll start the parade of recent pickups. This one hasn't arrived yet either, but I like its chances. I'm very glad to upgrade to this beauty from my CGC 6.0. KirbyJack, Mucheee1, TheWatcher and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I should up the ante and buy a 9.0..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started with a raw that graded at a 3.5, then upgraded to a 4.5 that I thought would be my forever copy. This one fell in my lap and I couldn’t pass it up. bc and KirbyJack 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
