A 6.5 compared to the copy I had that was missing the back cover (plus the front was creased to no end) is HUGE...

Thanks to Boardies (Columbia Comics and jimjum12 respectively) for these two which arrived today - they fit right in with my run, both being mid-grade beauties with off-white-to-white paper.  Nice one Steve  I think this is the most overlooked early FF book of all (for good reason though).  It's actually not a bad issue, story is OK, the art is classic Kirby, but it's just that the other "early" issues of the FF run are so GOOD, that this issue pales a little when compared to them.  It's also an issue I picked up at school (a copy without a back cover) from another kid (in school), and was happy to have a copy because this issue was a little hard to find where i lived back in 1964 (the year i got my first copy). So I hold this issue (especially presentable copies), with a little higher regard. Nice Steve...keep it up. 
And Kirby inked the cover himself.

Thnx guys - I have FF 6 and FF 10 also from prior transactions, so it's cool to have the FF mini run of 6-10 together. Nothing special in the overall big SA picture I know, but I still enjoy them a lot. Steve, I would grade it as "nice enough for me". 
So what is your goal, Bill? Are you trying to put together the entire run 1-100? How many do you have so far?
