Don't think this is an IGB book, at all.

If they can bring a Batman 1 to 9.6 sans trimming or a Hulk 1 to 9.8 again sans trimming (or other examples of super high grade restored books), they wouldn't need to on this book.

Hammer aka Dupcak bought a SP 9.6 AF 15 a few years ago for under 10k ( slight color touch)

I personally think this is the After copy .

The 9.6 purchase was mentioned on these boards .

Just an educated guess anyway

Unless the chips that necessitated that huge right edge trim was addressed and whacked at some time in the past, before IGB reconstituted it, if indeed they are the ones who did the work.

Solid friendships are an amazing fantasy

This is just a comic book

A restored 9.8 AF 15 is pretty impressive

The daunting question to all restoration experts is “How does one restore to 9.9 or 10.0!” 
 

 

That’s what I was thinking.  Surely they could’ve taken it one step further. Very sloppy.
