Heritage Signature Auction Discussion14977

Collector jokioo private msg quote post Address this user
Hey all! The Heritage Signature auction is happening right now and although I couldn't afford a single one of these books I think it is a lot of fun to look at the results and analyze them. It gives a good idea of what the absolute top end of the market is doing, i.e. where serious investors are shoveling their money.

Would love to leave this open to any books or results that interest you, but here are some of the most interesting from today:

Detective Comics #27 CGC 5.0: $1,125,000
Action Comics #1 CGC 5.5 (Conserved): $528,000
Marvel Spotlight #5 CGC 9.8: $264,000
Fantastic Four #48 CGC 9.8: $108,000
Detective Comics #38 CGC 5.0: $78,000
Whiz Comics #1 CGC 3.0: $78,000
Giant-Size X-Men #1 CGC 9.8: $72,000
Pep Comics #22 CBCS 3.0: $66,000
Action Comics #7 CGC 2.0: $60,000
Hulk #180 CGC 9.8: $40,800
Thor #156 CGC 10.0: $37,200

(all price with Buyer's Premium included)

It amazes me, who is it that can purchase books from $5000.00 to a couple of hundred of thousand dollars?

I agree. Maybe money laundry going on? But sure feels good to be a collector right now.

Marvel Spotlight #5 blew the roof clean off the bronze age.

Wally Wood's original cover for Shock SuspenStories 5 went for $840,000 (with premium)

Is that a new record for EC original art?

I didn't stick around for the original art (caught the auction during a work break) but that is absolutely nuts and may very well be.
