Senormac Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 I didn't think the Venus was even as good as the Torch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot going on with the Venus book for a 7.0...oh well, managed to go up again...thinking I might even be eligible for a prize this year... thirdgreenham 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

01TheDude Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 (edited) The picture of the cover for Venus 13 presented for grading and the one shown with the reveal are radically different to my eyes in terms of how vivid the colors and even what appeared to be wear. That screwed me up a bit-- the color on that Venus seemed sort of washed out and with some wear/rough spots in places in that original picture. As for the Human Torch-- I did not hammer it hard enough for the dust shadow. Seems like those books got their grades switched as someone else has mentioned. anyway--- muddling along to the end.
