ASM 28 CGC 7.5 WHITE pages $490 shipped

This looks SO much nicer than my sucky photo. The Black is BLACK, colors are bright. And there are NONE of those white spots that you see in the photo. Those are dust reflections.

AF 15 3.0 $6700 $6650 shipped

 

The marks are from CT removal.

 

Spine & back cover are excellent. I want to strangle whoever put CT on this because it would have been a 5.0 - 5.5 before CT.

Just curious, was the AF 15 graded when it had the restoration? I wonder what it would have gotten.

Just curious, was the AF 15 graded when it had the restoration? I wonder what it would have gotten.

 

When I got it it was graded a 5.0 SP with "VERY SMALL" small amount of CT as the only resto. Someone had already done a little resto removal on it and gave up, so it was probably a 6.0 before they did the 1st ct removal. Usually when the label has the words "VERY SMALL" it means a dot or two of CT. I sent it to Matt Nelson to take the rest of the CT off and it took a couple of send offs to CGC before they would give it a Blue Label. Unfortunately, in this case "Very Small" ended up being a lot of CT.

 

If I could do it over, I would have had the CT finished up on it and probably ended up with an 8.0 SL P. Heck, maybe I'll still do that.

I would have that ASM re-restored, but either way, great book

Interesting, it might look like a VF if the book is that solid, and the price could be similar to the 3.0 grade. It would look better, but it is tougher to find a buyer for a restored book. Tough call, but interesting too.

"Re-restored" you may have invented a new word. You might be right though.... this might be a good candidate for a re-restored comic.
