We ALL have them. Is the 17 the World's Fair issue? The All-American 18 is the World's Fair issue. I had a raw VF+ back in the day, didn't realize how difficult it would be to replace and so haven't... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Peter - it has a little bit of restoration so would be a PLOD, I love it just the same. The AA 17 is a solid mid-grade. The AA 20 is a de-slabbed CGC 8.5 (highest graded, I believe). The AA 16 was the Detroit Trolley copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gotham Kid Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 (edited) Do you know if the AA16 was eventually slabbed and if so what grade did it receive ? Metro has a raw "8.5" with cover cleaned. Saw it today. Nice but dunno about the "8.5" though. The AA20 has a Tec 37 "look" to it Edited July 16, 2017 by Gotham Kid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My copy of AA 20 is the fabled "Indian Reservation" copy (from Gary Carter). The Church copy of AA 20 is apparently 'missing'. Funny you should say that, I too have always thought that AA 20 has a 'Tec 37 vibe to it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
