In January I hid them

In the beginning of the year I hid my New Mutants collection because i wanted to work on taking pictures. What I wanted to do and what I did were two different things. I got busy as things tend to happen with life but with the deadline looming for the best set I am rushing to add pictures to every slot.

The back cover slot I decided at first to add the signatures so they can be viewed easier. The thing is I don't have signatures for every single one. SO instead I decided to add random photos of some of my things as well as the past two Wizard Worlds. I would love some advice on this because I do love this set and hope to improve upon it.

I am happy to say I need only two more. These two do not currently exist in a 9.8. I hope that someday soon they will. My latest acquisition of a New Mutants #54 was due to the generosity of RonnyLama who found such a pristine copy he thought he might garnish that coveted grade. I hope to be back into writing more and more journals but I am thankful that so many others are adding their own input.

To all that are hoping to win a best in set...Good Luck.

Please check out my New Mutants set because I would love to hear how to make it better.

Thanks for Reading

PS. Once again the back cover pics are random pics of mine.

Glad you unobscured your set! I have mixed reviews for you. There are a few grammatical errors in your summary, but I'm assuming you'll update that before the deadline. I love the pics that relate to the cover, story, or artist (issues #15-#17 look amazing!), and I really like some of the convention pics (issue #39 is my favorite), especially if you bought a particular book at that convention. Having said that, the random pics and signature close-ups aren't my fave. But hey, that's just me. It's your collection and if you're happy with the final layout, that's all that matters. Don't stress about the awards! \:\)

Actually, it was a rush job. I really had no back cover spots filled, with eh exception of a few. I will just consider this part of my learning curve.
