Star Wars #107 posted by B. Koski

Won this great book the other night. This issue has a low print run...Underrated in my opinion.

 

I love the cover and wasn't looking to spend a lot, but wanted a solid grade. This is a beauty for $60.00. I've never been fixated on 9.8's. Usually with the moderns I prefer 9.8's but if the book is expensive do to maybe a 1st app. I'll settle for a 9.6 or 9.4 if the price is right. So yeah, this is great!

Congrats!

 

I too scored a #107 in 9.4 on the cheap. About a year later I cracked it, had it signed by Carrie Fisher, and resubmitted it. It came back as a Sig Series 9.6.

Nice! #107 is a cool book to have signed by the cast members.

Wholeheartedly agree... The collection doesn't always have to be about 9.8's... 9.4's and 9.6's are just as great to collect.

 

Nice key... being the last issue of a historic title.

 

Congrats!

Yes, great price on a solid 9.4 copy! Congrats!

 

Some people like to get the cast members to sign these Star Wars issues. I am one of the comic purists who prefer to have only the artists, writers, editors colourists, letterers, etc to sign them. But either way is good, I guess.

 

Being a 9.4 means it is definitely a sig opportunity without too much risk involved. In fact, just like clouded9, it could even bump up a grade or two with a pressing.

 

Personally, I am about to go to Baltimore, and I am taking my 9.8 copy for Joe Rubinstein to sign. I took a very close look at it once I cracked it open and other than two very slight non-color-break indents along the spine, it looks like a 9.9 candidate with a pressing. The spine corners are flat and smooth all the way around with no spurring whatsoever. So It's getting signed, pressed and regraded..... C'MON 9.9!!!!!!
