Probably the coolest thing I own. Although I have some other contenders, like a piece of Abe Lincolns hair. 1966 Plymouth Barracuda. Came from the factory this color pink. One of only ten made at the California plant. Every year, starting in 1965. Playboy Magazine/Hugh Heffner gives a new pink car to the Playmate of the Year. When Playboy orders the pink cars, the factory will make at least ten to make it worth their while. Sometimes more. This one was given by Heffner to Lisa Baker. She was the 1967 POTY. It has been repainted in the original color, and is otherwise original. Well, except for all of the chrome I have installed on the engine and other places. I kept all of the original parts though. Biggest piece of glass ever put on a domestic car (rear window). This is #9 of the 10 made. No one knows for sure, which of the ten was given to Lisa Baker. But the person I bought this one from is a female drag car racer who moved to Australia where her new husband is also a race car driver. And she is convinced this is the one. Can't prove it though. She also has a 64 1/2 Pink Mustang, and won't sell it. I have an autographed picture of Lisa Baker with the pink Cuda. |

Planet of the Apes is one of my collecting focuses and I was gaga over this series of Alex Ross sketch variants. This isn't particularly valuable, but fairly hard to find. I've only seen 1 or 2 pop up on eBay over the years. |

Buying this book this week. I trust the seller and his buddy. There both sure the book got 8.0 because of the unwitnessed signatures. Got a bunch of pics. Book looks flawless. Going to send it to texas to get Romita Sr to sign it.  |

Quote:Originally Posted by earthshaker01 That would make it the best known copy, according to the census. There are two at 8.0 and none higher. Only one at CGC 6.5 and one CBCS 6.5 (mine). I hate the way his left arm looks. But I love the book for its age, stature and history. |

| I guess all went well with CBCS's building in Florida. I gave my buddy the address and told him to look around and see if there were any Batman #1's floating around the building. He said they would be ruined anyway, so why bother. I told him "I'll take them anyway. Beats not having one at all". But he was in a place called "Punta Cana, Florida". So I guess he didn't look.  |
