Last big book of '04...and perhaps beyond!!

[shrunkenhead]

Hey folks, just wanted to share my last big purchase of '04. Like many of you, , I spent way too much on funnybooks this year, and I forsee a need to slow things down in '05. So this may be my last big prize for a little while. Yeah right, I say that now!

 

Anywho, this one's a recent buy from comiclink...just came in the mail today. Slabbed at 3.5 (with white pages!!!). Methinks the grade is very conservative on this one, as it's really a stunning book (maybe a resub candidate should I ever choose to sell...?). Check it out, I'm pleased as punch with this classic-cover beauty!

 

Oh, and PS , that's not a crack on the left-hand side of the case. Just a piece of cat-hair left on the scanning glass from the last time my kitty Marvin tried to scan her butt.

Oh hey, and check out the back cover, too. You'll shoot your eye out!

Beautiful book and just the sort of condition I buy them in. Mind you, I'd have cracked the slab within 30 seconds of receipt.

 

A great way to end 2004.

Same here! All of my slabbed books get unslabbed, usually on the day of receipt. I save the CGC label, but I want to be able to look at my books.

I haven't uncorked this book, as I want to show it to a few non-comics folks who appreciate my hobby and I'm afraid they'll mangle it. But after I've had fun showing my prize off to my pals I may crack it open... I've got that Golden Age Spectre Archive with the reprint of the #62 story in it...it's a fun one!
