Odda Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 (edited) Thanks everyone for you input. I will be getting C&P. Edited May 27, 2022 by Odda Galen130 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axe Elf Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 I am probably at about a 7.5 as is; I don't know enough about cleaning and pressing to know how much that could improve it, but most of the bigger faults I'm seeing are bends/creases (lower right front cover and top left back cover)--so with those ameliorated I would think it could be an 8.0 or even 8.5.

grendelbo Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 6.5/7.0 C&P for 7.5 Thanks for sharing. Nice copy. Odda and Februus 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Februus Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 Yes I think 6.5 to 7.0 as well. Very small imperfections- structurally looks really good. It has a dingy look cause it’s a little dirty.. that can be improved too. grendelbo and Odda 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet everyone would want to know what CGC found that we didn't see. Looks pretty good in the slab. Odda 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Point Five Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 The book looks great! That said, there's a long crease in the upper left corner of the back cover... it looks a bit dirty on top, and appears to break color through the yellow circle. That likely accounts for most of the grade drop. Odda and grendelbo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It took me years to find one believe it or not. Had a nice copy only to find out someone had color touched it up. Had to return it.

I believe it - this one is on my "if I had any discipline I could own that book" list - meaning, if I stopped buying anything else for a while and sold some good stuff, I could likely get a copy I'd be happy with. Alas, I have no discipline and no 129. Congrats on a great book! Odda 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comicginger1789 Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 (edited) I was at 5.5-6.0 before scrolling Awesome book! They hit creases hard and this one did not appear pressable Edited May 27, 2022 by comicginger1789 Odda 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
