One pick up while on vacation this weekend, because my X-Men collection is sorely lacking.

I haven't aired it out. It's part of the provenance. Galen130 private msg quote post Address this user
Even though I haven’t posted in the ‘other’ forums since last November, I still peek from time to time to see what’s being sold by the more reputable sellers there.

This one will ship soon. 👍👍

Nice pick up.
I have always liked that cover. Less corny then most covers from that time period.

It possibly could. The brain's dopamine can react to it like a drug,.. seriously! Golden Age books provide a different type of stemuli though. More like a pleasurable motivation without the health issues. Unless you go broke....

Just stay away from Golden Age pedigree collection fever - that's the really deep end of the pool!

For anyone attempting the Golden Age, keep your goals realistic, know your limits, and be prepared for some long searches and waits. It's totally worth it!

Or like stuff that no one else collects, 15 years ago I picked up a Crowley copy of Bill Battle 3 with the outrageous cover blurb 'Die commie rats, die' in 9.2 for $100. So if you like covers no one else cares about from pedigrees where multiples are not put on over FMV you can have fun collecting them. 👍

I showed my wife and she was so happy for me she started to cry. Batman66 private msg quote post Address this user



so I sold some of my bigger books to fund the cap 1,3,4,5,&9 and tha all star 8, figured it would be easier to replace the silver age grails. I sold this ff1 to AJ with grailz on IG,he ended up selling all his wall books and this came available. Was planning on replacing my ff1 but didn't think I would replace it with the same book. Wife and I had Stan sign the book in '17 so it had sentimental value. Glad to have it back. Also picked up the love and rockets 1 from '82 to go with my love and rockets 1 '81

Ultimate Spider-Man #1 … in Hebrew.

Kinda cool. And there were 2 copies.

@CatCovers So, he had a shop 15-17 years ago. There’s approximately 1100 books.

Off the top of my head:

- 1st King Shark
- 9/11 commemorative Spidey Newsstand
- 2 Hebrew editions of Ultimate Spider-Man 1
- a handful of Spawn Newsstands (issues in the 50’s).
- I pulled a few Godzilla books for a friend.
- A lot of 90’s FF. At least a full short box, maybe two.
- Witchblade/Tomb Raider (Prism Glitter Variant) I’m surprised it’s a $30 book.

One issue away from NYX 3 & Batman Adventures 12. 😞

2 trades I pulled for my library:

Batman Vs. Predator
Marvel 1602
