Ebel 1911 Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 A little writing on the cover never hurt anyone. Got this back from CGC just before Xmas. Second highest graded copy behind the Mile High. Davis Crippen "D" copy. Brought this from a New York dealer back in 1996. This was one of the original "stolen" "D" copies that came out in the 1990's. Never had it graded until this year. According to the dealer, the person that sold him the book was in his late 20's, last name was Crippen. Here's a slightly better PIC: Sorry about the flash. Nice copy, Congrats!

Back in 1996 or recently? If you heard it back in 96 then it might indicate that one of the family members was doing the selling and not just the "renovators."

seank Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 The latest arrival to the tiki hut: As pleased as I am to get a copy of this book, I am more pleased to commend Flying Donut for being an all-around mensch and NOT bidding on this book once I expressed interest in it. He's now on the tiki hut short list for "premium liquor only." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
