CentaurMan Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Holy poop on a stick. That's incredible! Now excuse me, I have to go tear up some dry wall. Someone create a diversion so my wife won't notice.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JiveTurkeyMoFo Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 With a word of thanks to MCMiles for selling me a book he really didn't want to sell (and for throwing in a small discount to boot), I'd like to present a recent purchase from the Tampa Comic Con. Sure, its not high grade, nor slabbed (two things that are normally a must if I shell out over $100 for a book), but the great Schomburg cover really caught my eye and the White back cover and pages didnt hurt either. I see the Census reports a number of copies graded between 8.0 and 9.2, PM me if you know of a upgrade copy available for sale as I would be interested. Thanks!

nearmint Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 I recently picked up a nice copy of this book from moondog, and will be sending it off to CGC pretty soon. Bob highgrade has a raw 8.0 with nice color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought this book would be a person_without_enough_empathy to find but about the time I seriously started hunting it down, this copy appeared on eBay. So it was just meant to be.

sacentaur Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 Thanks all (and especially to Dennis for the book ) - the Prize 4 screams "Ack!" and "Thbbt!" to me, also Should we begin the countdown for it's de-slabbification? Already done, a.s. - the interiors on this book are very entertaining, pure early GA (lovin' it). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
