doomwhistle Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 Hey good people, Just grabbed one of these and was wondering what you might think. I am planning to C/P and keep it for the personal collection. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scburdet Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 9.0/9.2 unless that little piece on the outer edge is ready to fall out. I assume you did the flashlight check to make sure the Tattooz is intact? doomwhistle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doomwhistle Posted December 5, 2022 Author Share Posted December 5, 2022 Thanks. Ya, did the flashlight test. It's all there. 9.0/9.2 after C/P? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've bemoaned on this forum many times that the loss of the Tattooz earns a Green Label. Seems a little silly. IDK how you're going to press it, but when I submitted mine, the guy I use says you can't use as high a heat or the tattoo gets goopy or something. Putting boards inside is necessary to prevent pressing indentions of the insert into the book. I assume this is well known by anyone who presses comics regularly, but just in case. doomwhistle and fsumavila 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I was planning on CGC handling the C/P. Hoping they would be aware of this. scburdet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAR1979 Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 8.5 / 9.0 doomwhistle and grendelbo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comicginger1789 Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 Def 8.5-9.0 The light wear shown is reminiscent of my own 9.0 I had. Maybe even a tad worse. 9.2 would be a gift and best case scenario. doomwhistle, MAR1979 and grendelbo 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for posting. doomwhistle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
