PGM ASM 238 1st Hobgoblin => No Tattooz
2 2

10 posts in this topic

Here is my copy of ASM 238.  First appearance of the Hobgoblin.  Green Label for No tats.  That’s TATS, pervs...  

Just going to let the pictures speak for themselves.  I worked 7 days a week and 70 hours each week for the last two weeks and I’m micro sleeping my way through these posts.

Thanks, everyone!

Get out a ruler and measure that top left tic.  If it’s over 1/8”, which I think it is, you’re at 8.5.  Also, with the tattoo being removed, we need to see the inside of the back cover.  Lots of times it’s ripped out leaving damage.  
 

nice white pages though.

The tic is right at 1/8”F4077FD4-CA38-419C-A100-B207323DD2B8.thumb.jpeg.22e2fac631d074c2ffafd95df763bf3e.jpeg

These books are mysterious on the inserts.  The whole slip is gone.  Either it was never put in, which I believe did happen sometimes, or the staple removed/replaced.

i hada 238 without the tatoo that had damage the ebay seller did not disclose. He was forced to take it back.  I bought another slabbed with the tattoo to quit worrying about it.  It is very possible to buy a fantastic four with the coupon and add a tatoo to your book.  Just take tweezers and very carefully remove the staple.insert the slip and reinsert the tattoo.  It will settle in the same spot and bend back at the same spot.  Undetectable.

9.0 green label minimum.  Possibly blue 9.0.  Make sure the staple is original, top one.
