That's cool. Did you discover it by accident or buy it as an error? Internal errors are so cool.

Hello...Been a member for a bit but never really post...well I did a few times in the spare a grade section years ago but the board upgrade wiped out my history...

Anyway has anyone seen an error like this before? The cover has been attached upside-down...I read earlier in this thread about a Betty & Veronica with a glued cover like this but there was no pics & I haven't found any other examples here or on the google...I am just wondering how rare something like this is. 

Thanks for your thoughts!

That's cool too. Upside down interiors do turn up occasionally. In my experience, value is linked to the desirability of the comic / issue in it's normal state. Spidey errors always seem to sell well for example, especially ASM. Lesser collected titles may stay unsold or carry a small premium though. It's cool either way.

Thanks for the reply!

I picked up a small lot of Star Comics at a thrift store months ago & finally started putting them in new bags/boards and 3 of the 5 Droids #2 in the lot were like this so I figured it wasn't too rare...totally cool though and what a weird feeling it was opening up the book, took me a couple seconds to realize what I was looking at.

There's something about misprints isn't there. Finding them by chance especially. Love em :headbang:

I’ve owned a few copies and looked at many others over time. I was aware of this production booboo before I won it. It doesn’t bother me as much as how did it happen. I haven’t searched real hard but I’ve yet to see this on another copy. Almost unnoticeable but now you can’t unsee it.

I like it. It makes it unique.
