Red Hook Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 Beautiful books Frederic! Here's a new addition to my Green River collection. Unfortunately it exhibits the injuries that resulted from being shot by a bb gun pellet. A handful of the books in the collection have this defect (see TTA #60 on my site). It's a damn shame because the colors and PQ are gorgeous. I decided to buy it anyway because the FF is my favorite title and I wanted to bring it into the fold with it's other pedigree brethren. It will be loved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me it looks about a VF (8.0), but I think that would bring it down to a FN+ (6.5) Edited November 24, 2006 by Alex DeLarge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Hook Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 Thanks guys. Yes Alex, I agree on the 8.0 grade if it were undamaged.....I have no idea how low it would grade with that damage. I don't think I'd bother to get it graded at this point anyway. Red Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red It's still a lovely book despite the idle vandalism of a bored teenager, if indeed that's how it was done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Hook Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 I don't have a clear idea of what happened, but I imagine it was something of the sort. A teenager, a couple beers, a bb gun and silver age beauties do not mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudeman5000 Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 KC, where did you buy the X-Men from Shelton at? Also, what did he have it graded at? Dont tell me we missed each other at a show So, Dudeman, where did you pick up that gem from Shelton at Hey Arex! I had a table at the Raleigh ComixCon (Last Feb?) and he was set up right across from me. It was marked NM-, which is generally where I collect my older X-Men. Very surprised and very happy! There is another Raleigh ComixCon coming up on December 9th. Very small show put on by Lyn Anderson but a lot of fun. Good times! Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
