This is a cool thread.

Thanks I'm going to have to try that out, as one collector told me, don't open the comic book if I don't have to it's a little brittle like in between the pages, I took pictures of every single page, just having trouble posting them.

I'd absolutely avoid handling it any more than is necessary, especially if you don't have experience with older comic books.

 

It's already a lower grade copy, so you're unlikely to do any catastrophic damage. But even in its current shape, little things can add up (for example, causing a page or a wrap to come loose from the staples, detaching a piece which is barely hanging on, etc.)...

If you are gonna only own ONE book..... that's not too bad of selection

 

Was thinking the same thing. Very cool.

[Sekowskyfan10]

Definitely one of the finds of the year!

 

Is it still listed as "rare" in Overstreet?

[Cadillackid]

I agree and hear you loud and clear the last person to handle this, will be the grader, besides me making sure it is packaged as good as possible

Also make sure you get some advice on how to ship it in to CGC or wherever correctly ! Shipping can really hurt a book's condition if not done correctly. Great book !

[Cadillackid]

Oh I absolutely will get advice!

Than you for posting the photos for me!

So guy wanders in here and says he has an old comic, which happens all the time, then he pulls out an AA16 from a plastic sandwich baggy...thats crazy.

How many more grails out there in the wilds.....waiting....

Than you for posting the photos for me!

 

No problem.

Cadillac not for sale daily driver, and worth less than the comic

 

Well, now you can drive a better Cadillac after the sale of your comic. Get a classic good condition '60s one and tell your friends "one comic book paid for my new Caddy!"

[Cadillackid]

, I think I'm gonna hang on to it,

At least read the book first and handle carefully before you have it slabbed hehe

 

Smell it too!! That's the best part.
