jdraheim Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 I wonder if someone can help me? I'm not sure what I have here. (sorry I couldn't photograph these outside of the bags). I have a traditional blue cover Sandman #1, I also have a slightly rare purple cover Sandman #1. But what is the one in the middle? It is more purple than the blue cover, but not as bright as the purple cover. A purple cover is a little more valuable but is there any way to tell the difference other than the hue shift? Thank you in advance for any feedback!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiverbones Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 It’s the cyan plate running out of ink during the run, the purple copy has the least, the one in the middle has more cyan. There are many 70s books that had this printing issue, another easy one to see is asm 143 mysterymachine and PopKulture 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
