showcase22gr1959 Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 (edited) Could not find one so I started this one. Getting mine from C-Link (when it's paid for...almost there). This dish rag is costing me some nice books guys! Presents very well I think. I know there are more out there... Awesome!!!!!

ciorac Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 My gosh Richard, that is so purdy - a restored, super-lovely, mid-grade key with white pages. I agree it is an amazing copy. But for the record, I consider 7.0 high grade. Mid grade for me stops at 6.5 for GA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crowzilla Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Here the purdiest er poor copy you ever saw Now that is an awesome book...I wish books could talk cause this one would have one heck of a story to tell... I owned this in the early 90s at one point. Bought it from Fishler for $1000. Sold it to a guy who was trying to learn restoration and said this was going to be his big project - obviously he thought better of that and never even started.

peewee22 Posted July 23, 2013 Author Share Posted July 23, 2013 Do you mind me asking how much this cost you, been looking for a copy for a long time Most collectors don't discuss what they paid, esp on big books. (thumbs u Anything above 1.0, expect to pay 40k plus. The big problem is finding one, esp like DK did in a raw state. Keep checking the Boards as any copy that shows up on any website or auction house is normally discussed here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Knight Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Do you mind me asking how much this cost you, been looking for a copy for a long time I don't really want to disclose prices I paid on books of this magnitude, but all I can say is that a Superman 1 is basically $30k a point roughly.
