Red Hook Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 Hey, if you've got the nerve to stamp a highgrade SA comic with your stamper, all power to you! Just don't miss! B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Hook Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 (edited) Well, first you better make sure to sand down your stamper so the wear pattern exactly matches the stamped date. Make sure the character font is exactly the same as was used during the 60's. Make sure your spacing between characters is the same, as should be the horizontal misalignment of the characters. Make sure your red ink is the exact same shade. Make sure you hit it on the sweet spot.....I could go on........ and make sure your book is a white pager. And finally, realize that other than me, most people will pay LESS for your book than if you'd left it unstamped!

Red Hook Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 yes. Yes. YES! One of my all-time favorite covers!!! Congrats! How does that rate in the census? Must be up there. Proabably a rogue 9.8 in there somewhere..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aces Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 yes. Yes. YES! One of my all-time favorite covers!!! Congrats! What is it? I can't see. Too many scans in one post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Hook Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 No, just one scan in Surfers post. The Thor 135. And I was correct. There is a single 9.8 above it, and only two 9.6's. I have one of the seven trailing 9.4s... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have one of the seven trailing 9.4s... Yes, but since his is the last scan all the others must load first. I always like that cover too. Then again, most Thor covers are great.
