Man, that is ridiculous.

 

This stunning restored copy looks like it just came off the newstand.

What a wonderful book. The absence of a nice copy of this issue is the biggest remaining gap in my collection (as I'm constantly moaning to my fellow geeks about).

 

Maybe one day...

That's not paranoid. I knocked over a glass of wine on my kitchen table and it splashed over about 50 of my high grade DC sci-fi books, including many White Mountain copies. Luckily I store them in Mylar which is then placed into a larger Mylar sleeve with a flap. Only one book was damaged. I never have drinks on the same table as books anymore. Board members Silver and Comick1 were there to witness this panic inducing incident.

The theme for this year was Good Girl Art, best represented by this sweet selection of Church copies from our host.

 

I am in love <3

Not freed. It has never been slabbed. It is awfully pretty, and apparently awfully expensive as my mammoth offer barely raised an eyebrow.

[Silver Surfer]

Should have used the Rifleman cover as leverage, that always raises an eyebrow.

[font:Times New Roman]Which version, ...the original or the Flee Marquette variant?[/font]

[Silver Surfer]

They are both breath taking.
