| @martymann Marty, are you going to have them pressed? A few look like they would benefit from a press. |

Quote:Originally Posted by martymann Wow, Marty, this book looks great! Does it have hidden defects? If it doesn't you should really get this preserved. All Captain Americas are still going up in price. |

Quote:Originally Posted by Jgwalters100 That was done by the retailer to get credit for unsold comics. Before direct sales, the publisher asked for the top third of the cover to be returned as proof that you destroyed the book. It was too expensive to pay for the complete books to be returned. Obviously, there are many examples out there that prove that the re-seller sold the "destroyed" book at a discount. |

Quote:Originally Posted by martymann Hi Marty, I just picked this up a while ago at auction. It is number 12, it's the one before your number 13. It's a neat coincidence; you, Marty, have a fantastic collection. It's always great seeing the items you bought "off the rack." Keep on posting!  |
