Sorry; yes probably high side of mid-grade due to a little Nick at top of back cover, but presents slightly higher than overall technical from the front. I will try to reshoot it. 29dukedog 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

29dukedog Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 (edited) An amazing copy, one of the best I've seen. Plan to have it graded? If so, I think you might just have 2nd in the census... and who knows, if the grade gets finalized on a Friday...

I was compelled to slab it pretty much right away after buying it in '07. It looked too good to be true, and I wanted to be certain it had no resto. In other cases, like my 25, I know for a fact; the book came from a local store owner/friend who'd just bought an original owner collection that came with a detailed history. I'm not worried about resto on the 25, so slabbing can wait. Edited January 14, 2018 by 29dukedog exposition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The original art for this cover still exists!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
