SET DETAILS
Owner's Description
From my original raw collection.
I owned this copy, and another, raw since the '90's. I remember picking one of them up at a Comic Book Store in Illinois for $300.00 around 1994 before the internet made them relatively easy to come by. That was a lot of money back then, and still is today for a raw book, but seeing one of these in the wild back then was like seeing a Unicorn so you had better not pass it up. I kept one in the bag and opened the other to see what it looked like. In 2013 I sent them both into CGC along with a Platinum Adventures of Superman 500 I had also had since the '90's. This copy came back 9.8 and the other 75 and the 500 both were 9.6. I kept this one and traded the 9.6 set for four of the other books in this set. I think the other guy got a better trade if you look at dollar value, but I got some books I needed so I think we were both happy. I really enjoy the fact that I hung onto this all those years, submitted it myself, and received a 9.8. I'm not sure if this is the one I opened or the one I kept sealed. I have more recently started hearing how many of these poly-bagged books were damaged by leaving them in the bags all those years so I wish I had kept track of which was which, just out of curiosity. I had this book reholdered in February 2021.
