Airboy #5 CGC 9.6 White pages Stevens Cover + Airboy #51 Steranko Cover B 21 pix

Description: AIRBOY #5 featuring DAVE STEVEN's classic COVER depiction of VALKRIE!! A September 1986 issueGRADED 9.6 (with WHITE pages) by CGC!!And, as of 5/13/24, this is one of only 112 copies in the CGC Census to receive a 9.6 Grade with a Universal label. And, since this copy has WHITE pages, it ranks among the BEST you can get at a CGC 9.6 !! Written by CHUCK DIXON;Art by STEVE WOCH & Willie Blyberg; and Cover by the late great DAVE STEVENS!! plus . . . a pristine copy of 2019's Airboy #51Sporting that stunning black and white JIM STERANKO cover!! so you'll have easy access to the 2019 Airboy issue to: read; savor; and - perhaps - send off to CGC for grading and encasement! See below for complete information on the condition of the beautifully-preserved CGC-graded classic issue Long term storage in a Mylar bag with an acid-free boarduntil submission to CGC in August of 2019! AIRBOY #5 was bagged and boarded since purchase and (since 1990, when I learned about the superior results attainable with archival storage products and moved my entire collection into those products) it was 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. It was removed from its Mylar bag for the first time to be graded by CGC!! I submitted it to CGC to be graded and sealed and it was returned, with a 9.6 Grade in October of 2018. This copy, both before and after processing by CGC, NEVER has spent a single day in an attic, basement or storage unit, (and it NEVER will as long as I own it!) Since I received it from CGC it has been stored in, and it 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 becoming 40 YEARS old in 2026, this issue STILL looks nearly NEW, especially in its CGC case with its 9.6 grade showing that it still has WHITE pages!! Note that the photos used in this listing are not stock images. They are images of the exact copy being offered for sale. The photos show the covers, the CGC Universal label with the issue's Grade plus creator and content details, and all the corners, edges and ends of the brand new CGC case. The 14th photo shows it back in its CGC-issued protective polybag, ready for shipping to its new owner. Check out other CGC-graded copies that have been recently sold or are available for sale and compare their pix to the ones in this listing, and see for YOURSELF that this is a particularly GREAT looking copy - WELL deserving the 9.6 grade that it earned (and - as shown in the last 7 photos - it comes with that PRISTINE 1st print copy of AIRBOY #51 with COVER B, which features the art of JIM STERANKO, in a Mylar bag with an acid-free board)!!In every instance, each item you see in one of my listings is the EXACT item you will receive if you’re the winning bidder on one of my auctions, or if you choose one of my items and Buy-It-Now!!This pair of items will be packed extremely protectively and shipped, FULLY insured, by Priority Mail with USPS Tracking, at the quoted shipping cost for this item (except for any INTERNATIONAL shipping charges imposed through eBay’s Global Shipping Program).
