I have to say it IS a pretty impressive copy. Out of the very few I've come across, it was by far the nicest one.
Just glad to see it become part of an equally impressive collection.
Thanks man. A handful more key issues to go and I'll be "complete".

I still need to post shirts (x3), shot glass and a few other goodies!
I wish my mailorder shipments would hurry and arrive so I can start hoard pix.
