Journey Into Mystery #83 Worth Resotration?

[esxcoe-migration]

I have a copy of Journey into Mystery #83 in terrible condition, the comic is missing both front and back covers, and the new front cover (first page) is falling apart and no longer connected to the book. Most of the other pages are in decent condition, would this be worth getting restored, or is it too far gone?

I can't recommend ever getting a Silver Age comic restored...there are a lot of JIM 83s out there.

Book is too far gone.

I agree with the others. Too far gone. HAPPY BIRTHDAY by the way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Could you just scan every page so we can finish reading it?

I'd actually pay for it. And by pay for it...yes, I would spend actual U.S. currency on it that is not counterfeit or anything.

 

I have a CGC 3.0 copy, and I'd like to have a beat reader copy outside of the slabbed one. Is it for sale?

No way you should consider restoring that. Like Grider said... too far gone. you'd spend over $1000 to get it in decent shape. You can buy a pretty nice copy for $1000.

David - that's pretty funny as i was totally intrigued by the wee bit of story shown on the splash page. as i recall the early Thor's eren't the greatest reads and the whole Dr Donald Blake thing seemed kind of hit or miss...............

 

and welcome and happy birthday to our newbie!!!!

 

i have to concur that restoring any Silver Age book is Iffy and one without a cover will require a married cover in addition to possibly replacing that first wrap. as was already stated, you could probably get a decent copy for the same money...................

Out of all of the SA books, I actually find JIM's to better the better ones. FF, X-men and DD are all pretty...ew, to read sometimes. TTA's, JIM's and TOS's I find to be the best to read from SA.
