Bookery Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 I'm curious if anyone on the boards now owns my old copy (many years ago). It was a 7.0 (old label) extensive restored... but the restoration was limited to filling in the binder holes (through the whole book). Attractive copy.

I have no idea who owns it but I might have scans in my archives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jhutton2 Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 That is a nice looking copy for the grade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Knight Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 Attractive looking copy. Not sure if the 11 pages of slightly missing artwork would make a difference in the final hammer price. I would like to see how much of the art is affected for a book of this caliber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps that is the reason why an otherwise more attractive looking copy resides in a 2.5 holder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, I can believe that. This book reminds me of the now Tec 27 CGC 2.5 up for auction with high eye appeal front cover, but with the missing pieces on the back cover.

A shame indeed through the cover, but the inside page says it's an Oct copy so therefore it's a 1st print. $$$! Wayne-Tec 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumably "slightly" would mean no more than a few millimeters of panel edge, but it's a lot of pages so it could vary. I'm trying to think what would effect that many pages, if not brittleness, and I'm wondering if it's a manufacturing flaw, a number of pages torn in the cutting process. Still, given the 4.0 or so eye-appeal, I know I'd value this copy at more than the typical 2.5 book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect it to hit at least $120k, $140k wouldn't shock me, $160k would start to make my eyes widen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
