This is my only Restored .5. I purchased this of course because it was cheap. And I wonder the color touch that was administered to the cover, was it an accident or didn't they realize that two pages were missing. This might also be the reason I purchased issue 1, however that was a high grade compared to this one... a 1.0.
Superman's Girlfriend Lois Lane #97
CGC notes that the cover is by Curt Swan And Murphy Anderson while the art is by Irv Novivk and Mike Esposito. Unfortunately I don't see a writers credit for "The Three Super-Sirens".
As of 10-May-2020:
35 are graded; only one is graded a .5(restored) ; the highest grade is a 9.8

Personal Notes:
At the time when I first started searching for my Birthday Books I had a few guidelines. One of those were that if the book was already graded, it had to be at least a 9.4. However, also if it was already graded I wanted to do the best I could to go after a 9.8 on certain books. However when I saw this one at World Wide Comics I was pulled in simply because of the Date Stamp. Between the price and that little extra, it was worth it. I will still look for that 9.8, but until then, let's be honest, this is a beautiful 9.6
I did have to turn it in for a new case. It seems the 52 "Pagers" don't hold up well in the older slabs.
