TheEyeSees Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 Looks like someone might have added a bit of glue to the top of the spine split... in Marnin's scans, the spine split is open (the way I bought it), but in Mutiefan's scan, the top of the spine split (at the top of book), appears closed, or partially sealed at the top.

Mutie Fan Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 I finally took the plunge! This is my very first GA book. Bought today from Terry's Comics at Super Con in San Jose. Supposedly it is the Detroit Trolley copy but [/img] Hi Mutiefan, It would make sense that its the Trolley ... I traded the Trolley copy to Terry over a year ago. And that copy certainly matches Marnin's scans. It was a nice copy! Congrats! Thank you. It is the copy in the scans, there are three circular indentations on the cover that match. I am very excited! I can’t wait to pick up some more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is split open. I guess that is just the way the splits got pressed together in my scanner bed. It is split all the way from the top down to that first little tear to the left of the c in comics. Do you have any more early Peps? If so... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have any more early Peps? If so... Glad it is untouched! Would be a shame to change it in any way, that copy was so sweet. I don't have anymore PEP's, but Marnin still has some (five!) PEP Trolleys up on his site for sale... http://collectorsassemble.com/auction_sale.php?auction_sale_id=56&page=3 Tell Marnin I sent you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buttock Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Thanks all! It's got a few defects that keep the overall grade down - but that made it affordable! The see-through aliens were a clincher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
