PGM Batman 227

Ok, last request for a while, then I go back to offering my thoughts on other people's books. Same situation as with the Detective 400 - I'm wondering what the grade is and how the dust shadow affects the overall grade.

Without the dust shadow I'd say VERY FINE/NEAR MINT (9.0). With the dust shadow being on the back cover, it shouldn't drop that much. But to be honest, I don't know. It's still a pretty copy. I'd buy it for my private collection. If you plan on CGCing or reselling, don't.

9.0/9.2. Killer copy with perfect centering to boot. As DK said, if you are thinking about selling it, don't.

Damn, you changed it.

Just remember. I want your undercopy when you upgrade next.

I remember. thumbsup2.gif I am always looking for them on eBay too. I will PM you any links to 227s that I decide not to bid on.

Sorry, not for sale. If anything, I would slab it for preservation purposes then buy a beater to read. I've had this book for over 20 years.

 

I'm a bit ticked that two of my nicest bronze Batmans, this and the Tec 400 have dust shadows. I don't think many of my other Batmans have them.

 

I wonder if those two came from the same collection way back when?

I would say 9.2. The dust shadow reallt doesn't bother me that much on the back like this. I don't really know how CGC would downgrade the book for that, but still shouldn't fall any lower than a 9.0 even with that IMO.
