@Watcher you mean 1935 if you are referring to the Donald Ducks but this should make you feel a little more WT*!!!
My oldest and only graded copy of this. 1924. To put that in perspective, in 7 years she'll be 100 years old.
This is a rarer comic version of this book. The most common is the hardback

@earthshaker...(I'm humbled ...I actually can't even wrap my head around a 7.5 pre 1945..not to mention 1924)...and then add the fact that even in 1.0 it's be an impossible book to find.
Very nice...I'll post my low grade grails from the 60's and 70's in a sec ..but it's like bringing a knife to a gunfight.

ok...stuff that I've already posted but I don't have the luxury of going out and getting more ...my favorite is actually not even a grail...but the Okajima copy.. it's the old slab and probably not pressed so I'd love to see a 9.4 come back some day

@Watcher No shame, any personal grail is as big a gun as the next man's! I've seen some people's grails I wouldnt look twice at, and I'm sure some feel the same abt mine

These might be my two favorite grails I own. So tough to find in general let alone anything above a 5.0. Took me a long time to find these.

This is the comic that got me into the X-Men. I have such great memories of reading this issue to death.

This book came back 8.5 highest. Took a long time to find this book in high grade. A guy in Europe had two copies in his collection from his childhood. B I ugh them both. Had to make it all the way back across the pond to get here. The other one came back 8.0

So hard to say what grails are. I am sure each person had to many grails to list.
Howver the ultimate book I have never seen personally. The pic of this book is from a friend who has the only VG copy he has ever seen. If you know of one let me know.

By no means a rare book but it was great to finally meet Stan a few years back in Philly and get this signed. Perfect placement I might add.

@KingNampa there is no more racist cover or comic ever made IMHO than this one. If you get a chance try and look inside one. Just take a read of the back cover pic to give you am idea. 1944 highest.
