Does this look like restoration removal by the top staple?

Captain America 1

They call it resto removal but it's actually paper removal.

I only trust Festool with my restoration removal

I don't know how I feel about a slab with a collection sticker on it getting another sticker saying it's part of another collection.  Pretty soon we're going to end up with :

Well, at least that's consistent  This would be like 10 different college stickers on one helmet. Or an NFL team trades a player to another team, but he must continue wearing both team's emblems on his helmet to track his progress throughout his career.

I've always thought it's hilarious that grown men can still be motivated by stickers.  I thought most of us outgrew that in elementary school.  Woody Hayes was a genius!

My avatar is an Army unit patch.  Its sole purpose is to identify which unit you belong to.  The ribbons and badges on a uniform would be more like a sticker.

Very true.  But at least there are different medals/ribbons and different badges so people who know how to "read" them can differentiate between the meaningful ones, the less meaningful ones and the totally meaningless ones (there's one Army ribbon that we used to jokingly call the "I can walk and talk at the same time" ribbon).

Did I see a McFarlane Hulk page only go for $10K in their last auction? Isn’t that cheap?

Maybe this question would be better in the OA Forum?

[Silver Surfer]

True. For a second there I thought this was an OA thread.

Rubin Blades was always such a fun person to talk to about comics at cons. I met him in Philly, maybe 15 years ago, when I was on a Pep 22 / Archie kick, and he was so thrilled to chat about Archies he gave me his cell phone number.

I think Archies were among his favorite titles. 

 

[VintageComics]

My earliest memory of the man. 

He always had a wonderful spirit about him, and the fact that he's accomplished so much in life (music, acting, politics, education) is a testimony to what a great man he is.

That's the auction I was referencing above when I said they've got collections on top of collections with Ruben Blades collection stickers on Black Cat Collection-stickered and Jon Berk Collection slabs.  Maybe it'll increase the value. lol. In one case, I saw the Ruben Blades collection sticker covering the Jon Berk portion of the label.  So goofy.
