No please, hammer the grade!! Obsessive grade conscience collectors won't bid as much! Larryw7, vheflin and Markentoth 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cole spider cover after all these long years. Even with those corner spine dings, it should be able to beat the current trio of highest graded copies at CGC 7.5 to beomes the new single highest graded copy. That is, until the Church copy gets graded and comes into the marketplace because if memory serves, that copy there was pretty much flawless from what I remember seeing in the library at the Diamond Int'l Galleries grand opening way back in '95.

Since I certainly wouldn't weant you guys losing any money on this book though, I am willing to pay you full cover price for it plus the cost of postage to ship it to me. You best PM me right away before I change my mind because I don't think you are going to be able to get a better deal than this for this fugly looking book here. 50YrsCollctngCmcs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robot Man Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 I really like the pencil markings. Just the kind of thing that often establishes the original owner status of these books. I get the "tease" but when are you just going to announce the collection and give the back story? BuscemasAvengers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, snap...........you party pooper, you!!! Why go and spoil all the fun and hilarity here with boring facts and truths. I thought I was looking once again at all of those Special Marvel Edition 15's with the first Shang-Chi which I kept passing on for a dollar a pop back in the day because they were perfect except for that notorious wide white stripe running down the spine. And yet you guys are now selling them for almost $15K a shot, as evident from your Sunday Auction last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vheflin Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 Couldn't they get a hefty premium if they were sold as unslabbed and unpressed straight from the OO? Hope they aren't all getting smashed just for the sake of it. PopKulture 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
