Bravo! That Beware has always been a favorite of mine and I feel it doesn't get quite the reception it deserves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badback83 Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 @Point Five The creases on my book seem to be accordion type folds. For what reason, I have absolutely no clue. I was aware of the color touch. I think those two issues made the copy somewhat affordable. Had they not been present, I probably wouldn’t have ended up with it. I sent it to CGC so we’ll see what they have to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Jayman Posted January 18, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 18, 2019 First purchase of 2019 is probably not to special to most here but has been on my want list for quite a while. Not strictly PCH as its mixed with supernatural humor, but an early precursor to the genre. I absolutely love it! porcupine48, Doohickamabob, bounty_coder and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post jimjum12 Posted January 20, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 20, 2019 Nice books are few and far between for me these days, but Rick let me pay on this one, and it's one I always wanted a nice copy of. Several other issues in this run seem to get the consensus nod for best in the group, but this one is my favorite Baffling Mystery. It even came with a River City COA signed by Brian Peets of A-1. This is Rick's scan, but the actual book is much more colorful and glossy, which is what he said it would be.

As horrific as this cover is, the things that stand out to me is the fact that Heath was respectful enough to draw the U.S. Soldiers with a solemn expression and not laughing or cheering about revenge. He also takes the time to throwin a nice detailed rifle and of course, the roasted corpse in the lower left knocks it out of the park! Great book!

X_Phile Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 On 1/13/2019 at 12:30 PM, Point Five said: Very cool! (It looks like both books have color touchups... I assume you guys know that but just in case.) The creasing is super weird. I'd throw out a wild guess of a production problem with the cover stock, just because it seems like it would be difficult to crease them by hand so many times and so finely. Yeah it was well documented in the description on the CT. I really have been looking for one so couldn't pass up a nice affordable copy until I can upgrade. It really is baffling as to what happened. I don't think they were folded accordion style but they could have been. I was think more along the lines of the books being underneath something that was being worked on where they were using a ruler and drawing lines or something. Curious how CGC will grade them.

I’m curious as well. I sent the COC 19 to CGC last week. Hopefully I get some information soon. X_Phile and originalisbest 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
