I'm not sure if I can ever get out of the mindset that anything but a first printing is toilet paper at best (and I still prefer my double-ply over them). I always viewed them as almost "fakes" or "copies" for lack of better terms. I'm getting old and stubborn I suppose  |

| I haven't seen any hype trains running through here, just a sharing of knowledge about why a certain variant of an otherwise insignificant book is a rare anomaly that doesn't surface often. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by DarthLego I believe that we concluded that almost none exist, therefore the answer would be all of them I suppose Sounds like any 2nd print newsstand pre-Superman's death is a unicorn, which is actually kind of cool |

| Yeah, they are all unicorns if they exist. I just wonder if any others have surfaced, or if this was the only issue to get a unicorn. | ||

| I noticed yesterday there was a raw 2nd print, pretty nice looking, for under $20 on eBay. It was a BIN. | ||

| There's a ton of 2nd print direct out there. If you go looking for a 2nd newsstand you have to look for two things. 1) The text above the title. The first print is lacking this text. 2) The barcode. Obviously. Must have both features to be the book. |

| If it was as rare as I'm reading it is... I would think it would be on this list. A great wealth of info on really rare books in there. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by DarthLego I never said it HAD TO BE on the list to be rare. Reading the entire thread and reading how RARE THE BOOKS IS, I would have THOUGHT it would have been on the list. Just because it ISN'T on the list, doesn't mean it isn't rare. And what if he is psychic? You believe in that stuff? |
