Help grade Jive's FFs....

[JiveTurkeyMoFo]

I think this is the first time I've ever posted in the Grading thread. I've taken two books from my FF run and would like some input. Pardom the crappy scanner, but my HP bleeds out all the color and I was just too lazy to play with the settings in Photoshop.

 

So, without further adieu, could you please spare a grade for my FF # 22 & # 29:

NICE BOOKS.....

 

FF 22 9.4

 

FF 29 9.2

 

That FF 22 looks like a Manarrino copy.Those books from that collection have some of the prettiest spines that I've ever seen.I got one of their books and wish I'd had the money for a dozen more.GOD BLESS...

9.4

wow really nice

Thanks for the kind words guys. They are indeed very nice books and I am proud of them. What I'm most proud of is that both were CGC certified and neither book received a grade higher then a 9.0. Which just goes to show, there are some great "premium-looking" books out there in 8.5-9.0 slabs without the premium prices and its our moral responsibility as collectors-on-a-budget to find them.

 

I'll post more after Mega-Con.
