jbcomicbox Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 Got this the other day: I had George Tuska- the cover artist- do a cover recreation for me a couple of years ago. He did a great job!

Bat-Hound Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 Bought this from Metropolis at the Chicago show 3yrs ago raw. They advertised this as a 7.5 in their opinion. After viewing the flawless interior I agreed and shipped it out to CGC. The results [/img] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*paull* Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 Who cares what CGC says.... that is one hell of a beautiful book! One of my all-time favorite covers, too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrooge Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 Still, the blacks on this cover are incredible. What do you think kept this one below a FN/VF? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bat-Hound Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 Still, the blacks on this cover are incredible. What do you think kept this one below a FN/VF? I think maybe because of the small upper right corner crease and a small color fleck on the spine. Maybe I'm lucky the book didn't come back Purple Label with small color touch covering the color flecks. Sometimes this kind of slight Restoration is hard to detect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thedude Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 this book has been on my pick up list for a while and when a fellow forum member gave me a tip on where it was being offered for sale, I couldn't pass it up, believe it or not, I ended up paying about $200 above guide, now, does that seem right for such a classic Golden Age Supes book ?? every other time I've seen this book for sale it's usually listed at $1000 or so above current guide,... in case you can't read the CGC label, it's a 6.5 ow/white pages..
