I just got in books won in the last C-Link auction and I think I got a nice surprise.

One of the books is a real nice Thrilling 68. I think, based on the coding, it is an Okijima.

Can anyone verify that this pencil coding is consistent with that pedigree?

The handwriting and placement of the penciled code is 100% consistent with another Okajima copy from that same month -- the Wings #98, which I purchased directly from Alan Bahr (and later sold through Heritage). Congratulations on "rescuing" another lost pedigree.
