The seller notes there there is tape on centerfold and on spine which is a pretty big red flag. No book in 9.2 or 9.4 from 1970 should have tape holding it together. I'm a little surprised that the book has been bid up so high. It is miswrapped to boot. At least the seller disclosed the tape.

That book in itself is a wonderful collection!

As usual Cheetah, awesome books!

That's a beauty!

Sweet copy Robio!!!! Congrats (thumbs u

Stunning books, Rick!

thanks Hep. I've owned it for 30+ years and finally decided to slab it.

very cool cover. Lois is so dainty that she rides the broom side saddle.

Just back from CGC

Silver, I picked it up 30 years ago and it has been sitting in a mylar ever since. If only I had enough dough that day when the seller offered me 30 other comparably graded books. Lawn mowing money didn't go very far back then.

Thanks Nick. My back feels like a 5.5 sometimes! I was 6 months old when Spidey was on that cover. God, I'm getting old.

Just received these 2 back from CGC.

OUTSTANDING Sarge! woohoooo!!! How the heck did you get the book that quickly?

Congrats supa!

Spectacular book, PeeWee, kudos to you. Make sure you take a pic of this gem and your AF15! (thumbs u

That is a beautiful book, Peter. Congrats.

Greggy, Did you win the Chili 1 Oakland copy?

It is a great looking book and congratulations!

your information is outdated at best, seriously flawed more likely. since the $1400 outlier in sept 09 there have been 9.4 sales of: $800 1/10, $801 9/10 and $845 11/10. there have been 9.6 sales of $2k 4/10, $1725 1/11 and $2k 1/11. so, the only way this price makes sense is if it can be further squished to a 9.6. anything's possible since it was a 9.0 not long ago. Paperheart, I gathered my info from GPA solely. On the 9.4, you are correct that the $1,400 was in 2009 and one lone sale reported in 2010 for $845. I know Comiclink sales are not reported on GPA, is that where you have the rest of your sales data from? There was also a 9.6 sale on Heritage on 2/24/11 for $2,390.00. As far as making sense that is a matter of opinion. Pedigrees as you know normally command a premium, some moreso than others. I've seen many pedigrees command close to or the same price of the next grade up. Please let me know where your additional 9.4 sales data is coming from. If the $800, $801 and $845 sales were all ow/w or white and centered, the buyers got great deals. If they were cr/ow or ow and miswraps, I can understand the lower figures.

Great book. Oakland is a killer pedigree. I bid on one Oakland book and lost miserably.

. . . . . . . My wife is gonna kill me. Nice buy. If your wife has to know, tell her you bought a white page pedigree! I'm sure she'll understand

teddie, I thought it would go for at least 2K with the pedigree status and white pages. The one past sale on gpa for $845 was for a much bigger miswrap than the RM copy. So I was factoring the prior sale in the $1,400 range as a base price. Since it was a 9.0 and is now a 9.4, I'd agree, I see no chance of a 9.6.

Ok, who nabbed the Rocky Mountain 9.4? I know it was someone in this thread. It went for much less than what I thought it would go for. Kudos to the buyer.

Raw and beautiful!
