Good looking out.  I wasn't clear but, I only intend to slab the keys.  
Is eBay a good place to sell them or would you recommend something else?  I have an old eBay account but no history of selling much and zero comic books so I'm wondering if that would hurt views or trust from the comic book buyers.

You can try and sell them here first in the Marketplace. It's free.

Congrats.  That Twinkie should still be eatable with all the preservatives used back in the day, lol.

The Sound of Music was released on this date back in 1965.

This young lad displayed his talents on this movie, but what in the heck does he have to do with Spider-Man?  

@Get Marwood & I's half eaten Twinkie from the 70s for the first correct winner.

He played Spidey in the 70's TV series. 

I saw it last Saturday with the kids and I thought it was okay. Hopefully GOTG will be better.

Good idea.  Hope this works.

Unfortunately it's not the rare 35 cent variant.

Post a pic of the book. 

When I was actively buying newsies in the 2000's I did notice that mainstream titles like X-men, Spidey, Bats, etc., were usually more abundant than their B-lister counterparts. I would always try to go to Hudson Newsstand (Usually at Grand Central NYC)  the day the books would arrive in order to snap up the best possible copies. Usually there wouldn't be more than 10 copies at best of any mainstream title. The other titles maybe 5 copies if that.

With this guy now in my collection I only need two more issues to have a complete newsstand run of UXM vol 1! It’s great to have the finish line for a major collecting goal in sight, but unfortunately my path to said finish line is obstructed by ghosts.

What are the last two issues? 

What's the sellers eBay handle?

You're focusing too much on the first word of the thread title and ignoring the other three.

Like a moth to a flame. 

Don't recall if I ever posted this bad boy.

I use them for vinyl records and they hold up to the weight pretty good

Is that a coffin I see above the records? Could there possibly be a couple of Technics MK 2's inside? 

I might check this movie out over the weekend with family, is it any good?

@Get Marwood & I, check this out.

My amazing daughter tracked down all my Ross Andru real-life reference posts, copied all the pictures, painstakingly organized them by issue number, and published a single copy of a book.  Simply spectacular.  

And my equally as awesome wife got me this t-shirt and a spider-man sweat shirt as well.  Loved them both.

Yes, nothing will beat the stash that was there when I first found the place. Remarkably, he has managed to clear out every last comic from his shop multiple times since then. 

What's the name of the shop?

Dipped below my usual 2000 cutoff for these, into the stash they go. 
 

 

Is this from your go to "honey hole"?

You paid $200 to learn a lesson that a boatload of people had to learn paying a lot more than that. The best part is that it actually showed up, congrats!

I forgot to mention that the reason I believe it showed up, is because I left a very polite voice message on his answering machine at his house. 

I remember first hearing of Copper Age in the Comic Buyer Guide back in the early 90's. I think it was Joe Koch in one of his many weekly ads.
