catrick339 Posted May 9, 2018 Author Share Posted May 9, 2018 Star Wars 107 Last issue of the original series, and this copy is a beauty. After a long well lit inspection I can only see three flaws. There is a scrape just below the upper LH box, that's not a bend, appears to be a printing error. I have a couple other copies, and one of them has the same flaw, same size, exact same spot. Further down I see two miniscule color breaks along the spine. There is a small indent in the BC, something I believe would press right out. I don't generally give a number grade but I'm going out on a limb and calling this one a 9.4 with a shot at a 9.6. Tight, glossy, white pages. I wouldn't mind if it didn't sell, it's off to Basement Comics for a press, then off for a slab. Asking $125 FIRM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catrick339 Posted May 9, 2018 Author Share Posted May 9, 2018 Teen-Age Romance 80 Grand Comics Database says there might be some Matt Baker art in this cover? Honestly, to my eye it looks like Coletta all the way, but I know there are MB fans out there, does anyone have any definitive answer? Regardless, it's a late number issue, with a bit of spine roll, small piece out of BC at lower staple, and cover is loose at lower staple to boot.
