Publication Quality Scans?
Yoc:
Good to know Eric. :)
vaillant:
I track this because – whenever I will contribute – I will surely scan at high resolution, and I may really enjoy to have high resolution of certain books.
There is also another valuable motivation. In english language, you may have had reprints of Golden Age classics, or rarities, but in many countries people do not even know they existed.
A banal example. Even among copyrighted material, hardly a few people have read the original Timely/Marvel stories of the Golden Age (the original run of Captain America, Young Allies, etc.). This goes even more for not-known books which are now in the public domain.
@fett: The Mysterious Traveler, ah – great, and never published here in Italy. I have the Eclipse reprint book.

And the one slabbed book I ever bought- a 9.6 file copy- was out of the slab and on the scanner within an hour of getting it. (And since it was a glued spine, not stapled, there was no chance of keeping it in that grade.)
Kudos to ALL who are willing to scan. And that goes x5 for JVJ, who is willing for OTHERS to scan.

I love this--to hell with slabbing, it's about the readers enjoyment!!
vaillant:
I suppose "slabbed" means the CGC "encased" books, right?
Being Italian, I see this as an interesting idea when it comes about guaranteeing the grading, but an absolutely ominous idea when it hinders the reader to read his comic book.
The only copy I have in this situation is a Fantastic Four #3, and I am still undecided if I should keep it encased or break the box.
Ehi Jeff, aren't you the guy who's selling on eBay these wonderful coverless Golden Age comics? ;)
Yoc:
I agree, slabbing is a bane to the reader but I know many buyers that seem to think it worth while. Personally I call them coffins - where comics go to die.
