My copy of More Fun 52 finally back home. This book is a personal grail for me. When I bought it there was moderate amateur restoration and it was slabbed in a voldy slab as a 2.0. Not I know it is a lot more solid and I think looks a ton better. I will be sending it off to CGC soon for encapsulation but I would have never forgiven myself if I didn’t have it sent back to me to page trough again. There is a huge difference between the before and after photos!

Such an awsome book. Maybe my favorite GA DC. Sold my copy when I bought my first house. Always missed it. But you have to get #53 to go with it. (2 part Spectre origin)...

That came out awesome!

I need to do this as well. Mine has amateur resto I would love to get rid of.

Even when I had the whole run from 52 to 81 I was missing the 53! @Robot Man

I have a 53, it’s not great but it is whole. I have not been able to  one across a 54 in my range and have only seen very few 56 for sale and I think all were incomplete. It is a tough run for sure!

I only kept the 52, 54 and 55. Wish I had kept a few others!

It was Tracey Heft at eclipse paper. I would certainly recommend him. It took some time but I was very pleased with the work.
