I can't wait for the reveal as I'm confident that the story will be one for the ages. I'll be eagerly awaiting the release of the undercopies once the big dawgs decide what they're going after in the auction....

The variability of the FH inks is in the printing process, so I expect these books to vary just like the other pedigrees vary in color intensity.

I have always felt that CGC should down grade these a little bit. I know they consider it a “production error”. I have very often traded down FH books with a higher number for a lower number with better color. It is all about the color on these. Buy the book not the slab.

I thought the Church books were better than average on color and am hoping this one would show signs of an OO looking for good colors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post GACollectibles Posted May 3, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 3, 2021 (edited) Posted 5/3/2021 12:45 EST "Vintage Comic Collection Comes To Market Heritage Auctions is proud to present a new CGC Pedigree consisting of approximately 5,000 high grade Golden Age comics from a collection known as the "Promise Collection Pedigree". The Promise Collection Pedigree got it's name from the Promise Margarine cases found stacked upon the comics, the weight and the margarine which had been liberally applied to the comics as well helped preserve their color gloss and freshness. Heritage Auctions looks forward to spreading this collection for all to enjoy....." That's my guess on it's origin.
