Please grade my Showcase - Lois Lane

Does the book open easily? If so, I could see a FR/GD 1.5

 

I think that this book is fairly difficult to find and at least a minor key too. Second Lois?

 

Welcome to the boards.

Yes, it opens easily. I think I read it was the 2nd appearance of her too.

centerfolds aren't always two-up pictures, and oftentimes aren't.

 

 

collectors will ask you if there are any interior flaws, and whether the cover and interior pages are firmly attached to the staples. detatched staples will get you a lot of returns on books if you don't disclose that up front

the trick on this book is that it's not a "Lois Lane" book (nerf: ) but actually a "Showcase" book, and a highly desirable one at that.

 

but looking up eBay auctions on this one will be sticky because a lot of people mistakenly list Showcase books by their subject instead of the actual title.

 

good luck! oh, and it's a 1.5 imho

 

well, give the man a $100 for it,

I'm sure that'll make 'em happy.

Put another way, if you have Incredible Hulk #1 in that shape, it's going to be some money.

 

Maybe I should pull it out next?

 

Is Ebay the best for bringing in the high prices?

Thanks so much. I will be sure to note all of that when I do start selling these.

I'm right on multiple levels.

oh yea....fair 1.0 but looks solid. How are the pages...maybe a bump if the page quality is nice and the centerfold is strongly attached.

 

Did you do a page count?

 

No, not yet. I didn't think about that. I guess I should , huh? I just looked through it and didn't see a centerfold? But, I don't really know what that would be. Would it be a 2 page picture or something? HELP!

 

8 pages to the centerfold....8 pages to the back cover....

 

missing centerfolds, or coupons cut, pages trimmed out are not uncommon....and drastically effect value and buyers satisfaction on an ebay sale.

See? I know NOTHING about these. Ok, I counted the Showcase Lois Lane and it has all pages and nothing cut out. So, that's good right?
