Don't you have already a 7.5 copy?

yes, sir.   but i'm a label-chasing sob who would love to have the s.a. run in 9.0 or above, and am only 4 books short!  not counting annuals, which i'm about to send in and hope for the best...

So I’m going to need to part with one of these to fund a 48 soon here. Which one do you guys like better? The 7.0 has the printer defect on Sue’s cheek, which I can’t tell if that’s a big deal or not.

The 5.5 is pretty nice but has a fingerprint below the ‘r’. 
 

which one would you guys keep?

I looked at the 7.0 scan, and I couldn't even see the printer error. I used a magnifying glass and everything.

My advice would be to keep the 7.0 book.

Thanks! Here is a better shot. I have seen it on a number of books.

Honestly with how many printing errors the are on all the copies of this books and others of this era I don’t think that’s to bad whenever I look at this book the first thing I see is the Galactus I’d be happy to own that copy you’ll probably not even notice it over time my copy has an error to and I’m not even bothered by it

I'd keep the 7.0...a printing defect like the spot on Sue's cheek would not bother me at all, while a fingerprint on a book would definitely bother me and keep me from buying it.
