Yeah, but my wife just got wind of all my activities and put my comic budget on hold! In fact, if we find the right house to buy I may be forced to have a giant sell-off that would dwarf Bill's recent one!

Hey guys,

 

Just thought I'd share this with yea smile.gif

Hey DK;

 

Looks like a couple of real nice copies! hail.gif

 

Is the one on the right one of those "Black S" copies that generally shows up in unrestored HG condition?

 

Now that you have two copies, would one of them be available for sale to another less fortunate board member? 893crossfingers-thumb.gif

 

Hey Lou_Fine.. The "Black S" copy is unrestored and in mid-grade condition due to the spine split.. Actually the restored one is the one I'm selling.. PM me if interested. I'm always here to help a board member out.

I will have to check my stash of Detective 35s to figure out which one to sell next. Restored or Unrestored?

 

Stephen

hello all...

I would go with unrestored, in the 8.0 region...... poke2.gif

I think there is going to be quite a queue

hello all...

I am sure Brian will chime in, but he posted in another thread? that he had gotten an 8.0 restored, to go along with his unrestored Metro purchase (the right one, "S" copy)...I think the unrestored one is in the vg/vg+ range, due to spine split?...but both are beauts!

I just love those early Tec's!

Don't have a problem with restoration as long as it is fully disclosed when it comes to a book like this. Especially considering that it is probably the only way that I would ever be able to afford one at this point in time.

 

Extensive or slight restoration?

 

 

Thanks for the kind posts guys.. I thought you'd like to see em.. I wanted to be like Rick for a day or for more than a day because he had 2 Tec 35's at one point smile.gif.. But anyways, the book is either moderate or extensively restored, but I'll go with extensive just in case.. I do have the details of the restoration.. Anyways, my restored Tec 35 is offered for sale if anyone's interested.

I'd love to see an unrestored Tec 35 higher than the Crippen copy

Ohh, so you were the one who bought Rick's 5.0 copy.. Def. a gorgeous looking book!!! I'm jealous! So, what other issues do you need? I know you already have a 29.

 

I need 28, 31 and 33..........I am only concerned with finding the 28 ( unrestored is the challenge )

Might be tough. Most are restored. Alas, there is always a secret stash somewhere...

Think I just purchased my first pre-Robin Tec. Should have saved a scan. makepoint.gif

 

which one? 893applaud-thumb.gif

 

Tec #35 in poor condition, but complete and most of the cover is there so why not because the price seemed right to me. It must have just shown up on Metro's site today so I snagged it but didn't keep a scan before I completed the checkout.
