thedarkknight Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Both of these books sold for exactly $8,912 ( go figure ). Which one would you choose? ........................or for me....gotta go with Subby! DETECTIVE COMICS 35 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norrin_Radd Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 I would have to pass....I would not spend $100,000 or whatever those books sold for if they have been restored and have a blue label. You can't be a little pregnant, and if a blue label books has graders notes such as "small amount of glue on spine" or "very small amount of color touch" , then it's a restored book, and should have a purple label.The only graders notes acceptable for me in that price range are "off-white pages" or "from the collection of Nicholas Cage". I'm sure I'll hear some flack for this comment, but I know I'm right on this issue...so, let the criticisms fall as they may Check it out Showcase-4. I put a purple label atop your avatar. RUN AWAY!

Bronty Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 subby 3. Lots of Everett art in that issue and unrestored to boot. EDIT - m, not sure after seeing the restoration on the tec35 is only a clean and press. The subby 3 is probably cleaned and pressed too At the same dollar level I'd take the subby almost every time.. but in this case the purple level might have depressed the price too much. I guess I'd take the tec 35 in this case too, but I love the subby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelhelmet Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Don't know if you're kidding or not, but I seriously doubt that Chicago copy of Subby 3 is cleaned and pressed. Chicagos are uniformly very high grade with clean, white, sharp, glossy covers right out of the gate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Filter81 Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Don't know if you're kidding or not, but I seriously doubt that Chicago copy of Subby 3 is cleaned and pressed. Chicagos are uniformly very high grade with clean, white, sharp, glossy covers right out of the gate. The Chicago pedigree Sub-mariner #3 was purchased from Heritage as a CGC 9.0. It was then cleaned/pressed and resubmitted to CGC. It later resold through Heritage as a CGC 9.6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never any deception, manipulation, or smoke and mirrors games played due to greed. It's like the entire industry is run by a bunch of nuns !

Now its my turn to not be sure if filter is kidding or not, but one thing is for sure - a pedigree designation hardly guarantees it is untouched.

steelhelmet Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 True statement-a pedigree designation hardly guarantees it is untouched. But you'll never see a cleaned and pressed Chicago for the reasons I stated above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Surfer Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Assuming they are worth the same. For me its the October print all the way. Still haven't seen another copy in the last 3 years. Have seen a dozen November prints but where are all the originals? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
