8 is indeed gr8.  this is another one where i'm not looking for the "9" on the front, as i dig the ped more than enough to outweigh the upgrade desire.

I do have a 6.0 but man that 8.5 is beautiful .

My first off the spinner was 164. Your FF 5 is amazing!

The 5 came from a really nice collection that came out of Newton Kansas in 1988. I had the number 4 that graded at a 9.2 but sold it about 2 years ago.

wonderful first 5, jayhawker!

Thank you Straw-Man. I still have that 135 around here somewhere.

Fabbalous book!

Mine was rustled away by some jasper here on the boards.

I rustled it away from you .

I thought these Mexican issues from 1959 were pretty cool and with full date stamps.

The next best thing. An oversized poster in a Mylar sleeve.

Love that poster. One of my favorite pre-hero covers.

Many moons ago, I had the Bethlehem copy of that book. Wish I still had it

 

Why was that book only a 6.0 ?

Without checking I'd guess those must be near the top of the census.

Two-Gun Kid 63 is single highest graded and the Rawhide Kid 29 is tied for highest with one other.

That 74 is awesome! 

I got the 74 at my LCS about 4 years ago for a great price.

Now that's some Sweet Tales there!

You collect anything other than PHMs? Just asking cause you've been on the boards a while and haven't seen you post much other than these gems.

Either way - keep on sharing 'em!

Fantastic Four has always been my favorite title and I just completed it last year in August. I would buy any book with the FF in it. That’s when the Strange Tales came into play when the Human Torch had his stories in them. I have always loved monsters and got ahold of some earlier Strange Tales issues that were full of them. From that moment on I was addicted. I hope everybody is enjoying them.

Niiiiiice.  I just got one, but not nearly as nice.  Still glad to have it, though.

 

I hear you. I remember seeing it for the first time and had to have it.
