The star stamp means it was most likely purchased from an offshore military base. Quite the find, especially in any kind of decent shape when you think about some of the possible places that book has seen in its lifetime. -J. This is why I love this place. Even though I've been around in this hobby for forty + years, there's still new things to learn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While going through one of my boxes in my collection, it was sitting there. I had a triple positive experience with this. 1. I finally know I have the entire run of WWBN and no longer have to dread paying a fortune for it. 2. I'm grading it a 9.2, so I'm happy it's high grade. 3. It has the Mark Jewlers insert. So I'm extra happy. Anyone have an idea on what this would sell for graded 9.2 with the insert? $2.5k? More? How about a scan of it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dogsupreme Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 (edited) A lovely looking book. I just sent in a copy to CGC. I hope it grades high. I had another copy in 8.5 but sold it. Edited May 8, 2017 by Dogsupreme ADAMANTIUM and mec3437 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Zen Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 I've had this one since the mid 80's. That crease drives me crazy. But it didn't stop me from having Doug Moench sign it around 1986. mec3437 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Front looks like a 9.4 by the length/color break of the 2 stress lines. What does the back look like? Could be a 6.5 if it has a nice sub crease on the back.

pickycollector Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Back cover is flawless. Yes, NM 9.4 sounds right. That is what I grade it. Btw everybody, this is my personal copy and it is not for sale. Just for your visual enjoyment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jharvey Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 Found this one as a raw copy for $14. I was actually surprised it graded at 8.5 with the small piece missing on the top right edge. mec3437 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
