I won this piece form a Pedigree Comics Grand Auction in January, 2019. The book arrived safely but the inner well had several distracting scuffs along with several scratches on the holder. Several months later I decided to send the piece in for a new holder, books from this era in high grade are special and deserve a nice presentation. This became a decision I'd soon regret, I got an email stating the book would not receive the same grade due to damage. The email had a photo of a non color breaking crease, I don't know what happened as I packed the book securely, I opted to have the book pressed by CCS. Four long months later the work was done and the book came back in 9.8 grade, with a new Pedigree Label. I'm glad this piece arrived back safely to me, but I should have left this one alone, the grey label also does not look good to me.
