They need to adjust the color on those photos. It's not natural at all, the color looks manipulated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty, but it was not a true Blue (had ct and glue on cover) It used to be a 7.5 slight iirc i bought it “unrestored” at sdcc 2011 I believe (for a dainty sum of 23k) it was pretty much 99%+ “unrestored”. Only a hint of ct and glue remained that didn’t alter grade (or so I was told) Edited June 25, 2018 by G.A.tor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the story behind the front cover ? the story is that me and another boardie bid up the cover to a strong price in the last few seconds on ebay. it was attatched to a backing board. Matt at CCS did a superb job of removing it. Every single experience that I've had with Matt has been golden. One of my biggest regret collecting wise was selling a married Cap 1 cgc 1.0 for $8k or so in 2011 or so(pretty good eye appeal for a 1.0). Paid a STRONG price for the cover but I have something to hunt for: a complete coverless. lhcomics, Knightsofold and gadzukes 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assumed it couldn't be saved. So I tip my hat to you! What will a coverless copy set you back these days? $10k $12k? I seem to remember there's another Timely that has the same back cover. I think it's Mystic #5, so keep your eye out for that one to get your back cover (double check with someone who has a raw copy and can check it).

Jaydogrules Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 A 7.5 for $257k and a 6.5 for $175? You guys are crazy those are two very underwhelming results for this book. The only question is whether or not it's because of a mini glut of blue label copies on the open market this year, or if it is indicative or ominous of something bigger. -J. streyouttacomics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
