  1. Army and Navy Comics #1 *SOLD to GACollectibles* Donate $60 to the relief effort and I'll add $40 so that this book will generate an even $100. U.S. shipping is on me. If you are somewhere else, you'll have to pay the shipping charges. This is a deslabbed CGC 3.5 (SA) and label will be included in the mylar. Looks like the bottom staple was removed and replaced with some glue. A very readable book. And you need to read it to find out how Private Rook ended up shooting craps with Hitler.
  2. Putting in about 65 hours at work this week, so haven't had time to dig something up. Let me see what I can do this weekend.
  3. I know what you mean. If you're going to start showing a run, you could do worse than leading with a 9.6 Church #1. I think the first comic in the run that I acquired was #6. Woman walked into the LCS 30 years ago with a small stack of GA comics that she found in her closet when she was cleaning. Maybe a dozen books, not a monumental find, but I snagged the Captain Aero and a Catman #10. Don't think there was much else that caught my eye. Later, I added the Church #1 and was off to the races.
  4. Does seem to be an area where a great deal of inconsistency and subjectivity exists. This could be like the revision to the restoration scale. Maybe there would be a way to include slightly brittle in the revisions. More information is always useful.
  5. And of course, the World's Fair 1939. CGC says "trimmed." Sotheby's didn't.
  6. This one has almost every kind of amateur restoration possible..except color touch
  7. I've got a few comic books from 1939. This one squeezed in under the wire.
  8. No special method. I have about a dozen comics that have been slabbed in the magazine size holders, I just keep them flat on a shelf, not in the box with the rest of the run.
  9. #9 is a Gerber white space and a 9, but I found it to be relatively easy to find. I haven't seen as many #12s and #13s.
  10. They just don't exist. The whole run has a weird numbering (#1 is listed inside as V1 #7...Overstreet says Samson, a Fox title, was #1 through #6. GCD has a long and complicated explanation of the numbering, but I ran out of fingers and toes trying to figure it out.
  11. There are no issues #18 through #20.
