gadzukes Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 (edited) Structurally pretty nice. the cover & CF are very secure at the staples. Flat comic with no creases except for some spine tics. The obvious flaw is tanning. The inside pages have tanned, but they are supple even at the edges. So the question on this one is... How hard will they/you hit it for tanning?

scburdet Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Starting bid is a 5.0, but that's some intense tanning so I'm not confident at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
