Ped copies are a great part of the hobby. I love knowing the provenance of a book. The Crippen collection is also one of the more intriguing stories, what with the thefts and all. I wish CGC were a bit more liberal in designating collections as peds so that the hobby would be able to keep track of the backstory to more books. gino2paulus2, Larryw7 and Norrin_Radd 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
