  1. I've had a thought of sending my PHM slabs into CL or CC, but if the value boom hadn't hit them then there's probably no point. I'll dig them out and have a look.
  2. OK.... I admit I'm being a little lazy here. I could do my own research, but I just thought I'd put the question out here to save myself some time. Has anyone noticed the value boom moving the needle on Pre Hero Marvels?
  3. I just looked it up...... ST110 shares the EXACT same back cover as Kid Colt 111 (you have to be careful and compare the "code identifiers" that are usually in the address boxes of the ads. And you also have to identify the inner back cover images too). Ebay doesn't have a KC111 listed right now but with a little patience you could find a copy for around $10. In this instance you don't even have to find a nice copy because the front cover of the St110 is so bad.
  4. You don't find a "loose" back cover. ST110 shared it's back cover with maybe 3 other marvel comics from the same month. Some of the other titles will be attainable for next to nothing.... like a Kid Colt, Millie, etc.... Just spend $10 to get one of those titles and use the back cover for your ST110.
  5. The correct back cover would be easy to find for this one. I don't know what it is off hand but a little research will reveal it. Replace the back cover and it'll probably instantly go to the coveted 1.0 grade.
  6. I was actually asking about the ASM 1s with my question, but yes.... those AF15 prices are definitely records. I own a comparable AF15 4.0 to the one sold so I'm gobsmacked at that price. I paid about $12K for it raw about 4 1/2 years ago.
  7. Interesting. I know the term Dog Ear but I didn't know they extended past the original trim line.
  8. Nice book. I detect 2 tiny color breaking spine tics on the front cover and 2 color breaking spine tics on the back cover. Otherwise really nice copy.
  9. The tiny indentations up top are pretty shallow and could probably be pressed out.
  10. What is this defect called? I see it every once in a while. I figured it was a form of siamese pages.
  11. Pretty nice, but has a few spine tics. It also has a manufacturing defect (siamese pages?) When the defect is folded in to the comic you don't see it. Should I just leave that alone or carefully trim it to the page size.
  12. AND arguably the best cover of the era. I like it SO much more than 48
  13. I kind of thought there would be more movement on Captain America 126 since it's the TRUE 1st time Sam Wilson dons Cap's costume and takes up the shield, but no.... virtually no movement at all. Maybe because he doesn't don the costume for Heroic reasons, but just as a disguise to escape from an angry mob? I picked up a handful thinking it would be big.
  14. It's kind of like finding super high grade "newstand" copies because they took more abuse than direct market.. I never thought "Newstand" was going to be a thing.... but it's a thing.
  15. Well, this Ms Marvel 17 went for a very significant premium. Almost triple the US price . Comic collectors with key issues are getting rich this year, but if the UKPV premiums keep going up, there's going to be a subset of comic collectors who really vault into some big money.
  16. Ms Marvel 17 CGC 9.2 Last week a US copy and a UK copy sold within a day of each other. US copy went for $85 UK copy went for $240 Discuss
  17. I forget..... will there be a buyer fee tacked onto the price?
  18. CL AF15 6.5 at $125,000. 4.0 at $43,000 4 days left
  19. These look absolutely Minty Mint. The bags they were in were horrid. Kudos to the bag manufacturer.
