I get asked time to time if I want to sell this back to the boardie I bought this from a few years ago. When and if I do he gets first dibs but just not at the price he sold it to me for

I used to have a darker coloration copy but this is mine now

I used to own the 9.2 and sold to Cheetah and now Flex has it. I agree with Flex, neither scan do the book justice. It is a beautiful book. 

Here is my 23

Woah stupendous!  Talk about a mic drop book!

Just a brief interlude in our numerical journey. I couldn’t stand not having a 2 anymore and a friend helped me out by letting me have it back

I wanted deeper colors, but figured I might not get a reasonable shot at a better copy [and given recent auctions, I was right.]. The actual colors are as bright as the scan suggests - could well be the freshest copy of a Planet I've ever owned, never having had a Church Planet.

My 24.  Looks like an 8.0 but hit hard for split wraps.  Never taking it out so I'm fine with it.

Love #24. I would definitely like to add one back to the collection some day. 

@mwotka that has to be the best presenting 1.8 I’ve ever seen.

Such a tough book to find happy to own one

my 24, thinking I got this from Spyder.

[Flex Mentallo]

It's interesting to see how much variation there is at the top and bottom from copy to copy - I'd not noticed that before. In that respect mwotka's copy is the yardstick.

I think this was easily the brightest Planet in my collection.  Not many Planets in the Central Valley collection.  The miscut is odd for books of that age, at least that I have run across.

Yes you did!  I miss it now, but I'm glad it went to a good home.

This is actually the Toledo copy, although CGC doesn't recognize it anymore.

I think #25 might be the most commonly miscut Planet(?) If the ones I've seen are typical, miscut copies seem to be the rule rather than the exception for that particular issue. I've lost the scan of the last copy I had unfortunately, but as I recall it was severely miscut, but it had strong reds. So I think a square cut, well centred #25 with strong colours might be a bit of a unicorn. (I'm ready to be proven wrong by you guys though, so post 'em if you got 'em!)

[Tim Weaver]

Well, here is my first attempt to post a scan of one of my Planets.  It's a little small, and washes out the colors a bit, but at least it's a start.
