I bought a collection of 50's war comic books.I pride myself on being able to decipher MOST of the comic prices compared to condition. The thing is, i CAN NOT seem to be able to UNDERSTAND these 3 books >> Are they worth $300 or $3000 0o i am guessing the former not the latter...but..i really dont know on this one. FoxHole #1.. ( 4.0>?) #2..( 2.0..cover almost off) #4..(4.0>?) I am NOT going o sell them here so..i am just looking for your ...input please YES..i have searched myself and THATS why i am here. My 3 books are pictured and Ebay Sold and for sale pictured. |

Question - are those asking prices for those books or are those more "dreamer" type prices? Any record of any actual sales? That's what I might view as the biggest determinant of the value at this point. According to my most recent Overstreet, both #2 and #4 in 4.0 would go for about $62. The most valuable would be a #1 which in 9.2 lists for about $1150. So, whoever is asking $2740 for a #4 in 4.5 is definitely on some powerful stuff... PDG |

So first - Nice Score!! Second, I also bought a group of books of that vintage last year and also had a Foxhole 2 (maybe close to 6.0?). My research showed not much data BUT the interesting tidbit is #2 cover and interior are by Jack Kirby the stories are supposesly based on Kirby's own wartime experiences. For a Kirby fan this book would be essential. No recorded sales and only 3 on the other guy's census. The #1 is considered a classic cover, so it has O OSPG (Over Overstreet Price Guide)value (as proof, a 3.0 sold last month for just over $1,000). Lots of graded copies (well, if you consider 20 a lot). Don't know about #4, sorry. |

@QuaBrot Now that you've pointed out that #2 is a Kirby cover, I can't unsee it. | ||
