My first pedigree book. Got it originally because I thought the cover was funny. |

| Since the other thread is archived, here's a link to the CGC's recognized pedigrees (it's worth noting that they currently recognize 61 pedigrees, now including Chinatown and the Promise Collection, but only mention recognizing 59 in their uncorrected script)... clickable text I'm assuming CBCS recognizes all pedigrees the CGC accepts and perhaps a few more that may not be mentioned on the list. For more specifics on individual pedigrees, here's a link to my earlier archived pedigree and provenance thread (OGJackster kindly provided full descriptions of all known and established pedigrees to that date in the second post in the thread)... clickable text . |

| For sure, I recently found that I'm a fan of a lot of the older GA Captain Marvel and SA/BA Shazam covers/issues. So I was stoked to find a copy of this at this grade, and a pedigree copy at that. Quote: Originally Posted by EbayMafia |

| Great book Catman! I bid on some books but got shutout. It was tough as the minimum seemed to be around $10,000 /book. Phew! Beautiful books. | ||

Here's the other book and yes, I'll admit it, I was teasing it out a bit...   |

| Some of my favorite books in my collection are from the Davis Crippen pedigree. This Golden Age collection was second in size only to the extraordinary Edgar Church/Mile High accumulation, numbering roughly 13,000 issues and containing near complete titles from every company and genre between 1940 and 1955. It also has a distinctive history of discovery; about 2000 books were initially stolen from the Crippen house in 1991 and assimilated into the market as the "D" copies, named for the distinctive penciled code written at the top of the first page of each comic. Once Crippen passed away and the remainder of the collection was sold in 2006, the theft came to light and the origin of the pedigree was revealed.        |
