I've never owned one, but I'm sure someone else can chime in on this counterfeit. _________________________ My CAF: maloney's comicartfans collection My MSC: maloney's MySlabbedComics collection

USArmyParatrooper USArmyParatrooper I was posting here when you were in diapers. Registered: 01/12/08 Posts: 3162 Loc: 17S PV 4768 0327	I guess that trumps my needing a reader copy. All I offered to do was pay for shipping. _________________________ I LOVE

Bronzebaker Bronzebaker Up 20 words per minute since I signed up Registered: 12/22/11 Posts: 1274	Just in case it hasn't been mentioned, there's another easy way to tell if a copy is a 3rd printing. The 3rd printing is slightly smaller in width than the first two. The black bar on the rhs of the front cover will be thinner. Exterior differences from 1st to 3rd: 3rd is pinker in color. 3rd has more blood in the second 'T' in Turtles. 3rd is thinner in width and has a thinner black bar on the right hand side. Don't take the CGC label for granted if you are buying a graded copy that is advertised as a first print. Look closely at the book itself.
