Uncanny X-Men #133 NM- (9.2) Sensational Colors, High Gloss - Classic Cover

$

24

Up for bid is a beautiful copy of Uncanny X-Men 133. It is unrestored and in NM- (9.2) condition. I try to grade conservatively and accurately, but because I am not a professional grader, I also have provided large scans, photos, and added written details so that you can judge for yourself. (Scroll to the bottom of listing for large scans, with links to even larger scans.)

The good: Colors are just remarkable and gloss is outstanding and smooth. Lies perfectly flat and tight. The staples are clean and attached firmly at centerfold. There are no interior or exterior rips or tears. Pages are white to off-white. Has been happily and carefully stored in my collection for decades. Beautiful book.

The not so good: At high resolution, I can see a tiny ding in the top left corner and a couple of spine ticks on the upper half of the spine. In the top right corner of the back cover, you can barely make out, if you hold the issue just right, the faint numbers "240." There is no ink or pencil on the page, but rather I think this was an impression left by someone writing on a piece of paper that was on top of the comic.

All of the pros and cons should be visible from scans and photos, but please contact me with any questions. I take great care in shipping items and will ensure that your comic arrives bagged, boarded, and safe. I also can combine shipping costs. If you win more than one auction, request an invoice before paying so that I can combine the cost for you.

The current Overstreet Price Guide lists the value of this issue as approximately $75 in NM- (9.2) condition. Don't miss the other high-grade X-Men titles I'm auctioning this week.

Star Wars fans: Please don't miss my other auctions this week! I am auctioning Star Wars 1-25, most in VF/NM or better condition, as well as Star Wars Annual No. 1.
