TSwift25 Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 This was the first silver-age key I ever had, got it close to 20 years ago as a real youngin' collector. Still have it. Tons of warm and fuzzies, beaten to hell, but I don't care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheDanimal Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 (edited) Posting this again but since i'm officially part of the club it wouldn't hurt to post it again. Very stoked! It's not payed off for a couple weeks but it's still mine. Ext. restoration includes color touch, piece added, and staple reinforcement Metropolis has it graded as a 4.0 apparent and I think that's fairly accurate. With my big tax return coming and all my other 1-66 run i've been buying being in the VF range, this book is a good place holder but not up to par with the others. So I might save the money and use it on a 5.0 unrestored graded or so and either sell this or trade it. OR keep a reading copy haha.

zuckuss2003 Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 3.5/4.0 is my goal. I really can't swing much higher, that is already a stretch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fantastic_four Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 This was the first CGC slab I ever bought back in late 2000. Note it's not only an old-style slab, but it's OLD-OLD-style--one of the original CGC cases before they introduced the inner well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
namisgr Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 It's a second-generation label, though, since it actually lists the page quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
