See below for complete information on the condition of the beautifully-preserved classic issues which have been graded and encased by CGC Long term storage in a Mylar bags with acid-free boardsuntil submission to CGC in January of 2022! Each of these issues was bagged and boarded since purchase and preserved in a thick archival Mylar bag with a heavy-weight acid-free board, and stored in my smoke-free, pet-free, climate-controlled home. Each one was removed from its Mylar bag for the first time to be graded by CGC!! I submitted them to CGC to be graded and encased and they were returned, with Grades between 9.4 and 9.8, and CONSECUTIVE CGC Certification Numbers, at the end of May, 2022. Each copy, both before and after processing by CGC, has NEVER spent a single day in an attic, basement, garage or storage unit, (and NEVER will as long as I own it!) Since they were received from CGC, each of these issues has been stored in, and each one will be shipped to its new owner in, its CGC-issued protective polybag.Thanks to careful handling, and long-term storage in Mylar, and despite the fact that each one becomes THIRTY EIGHT YEARS OLD in 2023, they STILL look BRAND NEW, especially in their CGC cases with their HIGH grades and Universal Labels showing that each of these copies still has WHITE pages!! In addition – the THREE issues in this series, graded 9.4 to 9.8, came back from CGC with CONSECUTIVE CGC CERTIFICATION NUMBERS (3994503004 through 3994503006)which makes this a real collectible rarity!! Note that the photos used in this listing are not stock images. They are images of the exact copies being offered for sale. The photos show: the front covers of the set of three CGC-graded issues; each front and back cover of the 3 CGC issues; the set of CGC Universal Labels; and the corners, edges and ends of the three NEW CGC cases. This is a GREAT 3-issue set of CGC HIGH GRADES - each one WELL deserving the grade that it earned. Considering the relative rarity of high-grade copies of these three issues, and the consecutive CGC Certification numbers, you may never see another set like it again (and it comes with that beautiful Factory-Sealed Slipcased Hardcover Graphic Novel, as a BONUS)!!
