Sal Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 Speaking of ... this just arrived today for me, I'm hoping it's worth $2500 there was an auction last year where the seller had that book in VG for 2.5k on account of the sweepstakes offer. there's no shortage of idjits in the world, that's for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dad&Son-migration Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 and the ONE and ONLY copy of Iron Fist 1 CGC 9.8 and Sully... not trying to rain on any parade as I already did this... but do you think it would still get a 9.8 with that upper left corner..is that a bindery tear from manufacturing...

Good question...what looks like a bindery tear on the book is actually just dust/scratch on the case itself (it is an older case)....there is no bindery tear on the actual book...THAT SAID the upper left corner does have a bit of "fuzz" on the very top...making it a borderline 9.8...but I have certainly have seen my share of 9.8s with the occassional "soft corner." Even so...very glad to own it as I love the Iron Fist series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sullypython Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 Thanks guys...it is nice to have the hard work of accumulating these books appreciated by felloe board members...Here are some Silver Age books recently acquired (starting off with another grail book...the Northland Strange Tales 110 CGC 9.4): and a couple of early Hulks (love the Rhino cover on 104): and Avengers 70 and 85 in 9.6 (Squadron Sinister appearances..looking for these books to break out soon)...

sullypython Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 Yes, still a real estate lawyer by trade...but me and my partners are trying to do more and more real estate development lately which takes a good portion on my time...and hopefully will take even more as time goes on...it helps to feed the habit!!!
