That's a Bethlehem pedigree, as indicated by that stamp, at least It should be, right?

Thanks for pointing that out. I didn't catch that nor did CGC. I'll leave it up as is. A buyer will get a nice upgrade to a pedigree on a resubmit. Or if it doesn't sell I'll resubmit. 

C. Spaulding has pointed out that the spelling of Bethlehem is incorrect on the stamp. The stamp has "Behtlehem". So most likely this is not a Bethlehem pedigree.

Here is a link to another discussion on the Bethlehem misspelling.

Is it a misspelling on a stamp at the store or is it a fake?

I noticed that a Bethlehem pedigree 8.0 was sold in Nov 2010. However, the Cert # no longer exists, The date the comic was published may indicate that it is was a misspelled stamp but I'll investigate further with CGC and anyone else that may have knowledge about this.

I tend to believe it is a misspelling. If one was going to forge this stamp, you’d think they would do it right! Either way it is a gorgeous book nonetheless.

Take.

[JustJimN]

Official word from CGC is that they don't recognize the stamp with the misspelling as a Bethlehem Pedigree. Not enough evidence to corroborate a bad stamp at the store or a fake stamp. So can't call it a pedigree. 

So we just have a very nice high grade Haunt of Fear #17!
