Ron C. Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 I have been looking for more information about this 16 page preview book from 1979-80. This seems to be the only copy of this edition on the CGC Census. I occasionally look to try to upgrade my copy, but there never seems to be even another raw one available. What was the print run on this? Any more insight into this book would be welcomed. Thank you. dover 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Dowling Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 Hey Ron, I remember you posting this before. Pretty sure this was a promo for retailers to order copies of the new title. I would expect there to be a relatively low number printed and even lower saved. I've never seen this in person but there were other similar items sent to us when I managed a LCS in the early 90s. Even then, print runs would've been a several thousand or so (more or less) and most got tossed. I would expect that 10 years before, the number printed would be much less. oakman29 and Ron C. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wombat Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 So I have no idea why mine is not showing up on the census. When I look up the cert it seems to be right, but definitely not on the census. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently, CGC has 2 listings for the same book: Ron C. and jimjum12 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JRBaxter Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 I guess I need to find me one of these now. Had not seen it before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wombat Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 I'm trying to alert CGC to the fact they seem to have this in two spots in the census. We shall see how it goes. Randall Dowling and jimjum12 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
