I have been told the book has been color touched. Which means someone, not me, touched up the spine. You can see by the pictures of the inside cover some of the color went through to the 1st inside pages.  I received this book over 25 years ago when  a old friend owed me money and he paid me with comics and baseball cards. I found it a few years ago when I tried to sell it that's when I found out about the touch up that had been done. Other than that the book is in very good shape. I'm putting a high buy it know but will take the 1st reasonable offer, and I'll throw in a few other ghost rider comics too.
