    I don't see glue, but on the inside cover sides (front and back) it does look like enlarged original staple holes, which could explain why someone might have re-stapled it. I'm glad the seller disclosed it, because it's a pretty nice staple job - it's very hard to see from first glance until the book is out of the bag. Again, either way it's fine with me - it's a great looking copy and it's staying in my collection, so for $10 I'm definitely happy with it. Thanks for the insights!

    I had a lucky day all around at the show today, I probably should have spent more, but I stuck to the budget I gave myself...

    Interesting, thank you! I'll take a closer look and see if I can see any glue. I didn't notice any tape at all anywhere, and I feel like that would have been too obvious to miss, but I didn't look for glue.

    Wow! That's crazy!! I bought it today at a small show at the New Berlin, Wis. VFW Hall. Paid $7. That's amazing.

    Sorry to bump a nearly 5-year-old thread, but I bought a Cherry #11 today at a comic show, and the seller said there were no glasses with it. When I took the book out to re-bag it when I got home, it turns out there were a pair of glasses in it, but I was sure there was no way they could be original, so I started searching. Imagine my surprise to find this thread, and to see that I had the same glasses that @JollyComics showed in his first post... But now I'm more confused. Did the book not come with glasses? If not, why do copies seem to have these banana gorilla glasses included? This is weird. Mine is a 1st print:

    I got this really nice-looking Batman #152 for pretty cheap today ($10) because they said it had added staples (and it does have 4 staples). But these look to be really well done, in my non-experienced opinion. They're well aligned with the spine and very hard to notice. But in the center spread, they do kind of look different or maybe newer. Is there a chance this was done when manufactured, or is this just a pretty nice job of adding staples by someone after the fact? It's odd too because the book is nice and tight and complete, so I'm not sure why extra staples would have been needed... Either way, I'm happy to own it in the collection for $10, just looking for some info/opinions.

    Picked this up today - I've always been intrigued with Omaha (Omaha and Cherry are the only strictly adult titles I've sought out). First time owning this for me - I know this book ain't what it used to be (and this one isn't the highest grade), but for $10 I knew it was coming home with me...

    Not completely on the topic of this thread (we need a "post your comic book show finds" thread), but I hit up a small, local VFW Hall show today. Spent $130 on some sweet stuff!

    Punch Out is still one of my all-time favorites - I have a Steam Deck handheld and I put RetroArch on it basically just so I could play Punch Out (and old Zelda games) on the go.

    I think Tony wrote, penciled and inked for some of this run.
