Coverless key book vs coverless reprint? 1 1

[Cushing Fan]

Hi everyone, 

I was looking at a coverless key Marvel book and have a question.  I am aware that this particular book has a golden record reprint.  What is the difference between the two interiors to tell the original from the reprint?

The GRRs are not publications in the sense that they have articles and advertisements, other than for other GRR products. It's not distributed on the newsstand as a periodical hence no cover price (and other things). The story is the same, but told without inclusion of ads or articles thus is a thinned out version.

I was looking at a coverless book to buy for my collection and I wanted to know how it is an original so I don't get scammed.  I'm not selling the book.

Thank you very much for answering my question.

As JJJ says above the editorial is completely different so you can easily tell GRR. Don’t know what issue you are after but there are other differences: GRR;

Original;

I have noticed that even coverless books books still look good when inside a CGC cas, even 

with the N G designation

It's their Newton Ring technology.

GRR JIM #83 is a bit different to others, because Thor story is only half a book instead of printing rest of JIM #83 it reprints another story - Thor and lava man. It does utilize inside cover in b&w but rest of comic is in colour. 

so lacking of page 1 is an obvious give away difference to original printing.
