...stripped of it's pedigree status, and bumped two grades in the process. There goes a little more comic collecting history down the drain. Guess they can't id these things at CGC. But the old label was turned in....currently a 0.0.

Can a customer request the pedigree labeling be omitted?




9.6 available on comiclink for now......

What makes you think the book was pressed? If you can tell from a scan....you're a party of one. Funny thing is....the 9.2 looks just as good, if not better.

Holy cow thats sick. I was just thinking about buying that book too. Thats it I am against pressing. Actually maybe it was just a resub? That is sick.

It's quite possible it was just a resub.....grades can vary widely you know.

What bugs me the most about this is the apparent attempt to lose the pedigree designation. I don't understand it.

By the way......the 9.2 sold for $460 on Heritage in 2004.

Isn't anybody in this hobby willing to work for a living?

I had a copy of this issue and it was sort of wavy/bumpy on the front cover along the spine due to the staples and the squarebound format. You can see the waves on the 9.2 but you can't really tell on the 9.6 scan since it's smaller.

My issue also had some edge curling on the front right edge which this one seems to have as well. (Not color breaking, just a slight curl.)

(This probably isn't my copy in any case.)

Hi Shin,

It isn't, because the 9.2 was graded in 2001, well before you acquired your GRs, I believe.

Is this your copy? Maybe you had more than one, 'cause it's a bit rough.
