  5. Thanks for posting all those cool books (thumbs u
  6. way to go sir; i bid on "make an offer" about 5 times over the last few months on that bad boy, but just couldn't ever get to where the seller needed me to get. i am proud for you. Yeah, I had to do the back and forth thing a bit, too. I probably paid a bit too much for it, but I love the cover and wanted a Reilly with the name stamp on the back cover, so...
  7. Although the service may be the same, the work involved isn't when looking at GA books. GA books are usually both larger in dimension as well as up to 64 pages plus covers. So, more to look at/evaluate in GA books. I'm pretty sure this has to do with risk and insurance. Somebody at CGC screws up a common $50 book, no real biggie. Somebody drops the Church copy of All-American 16 on its head and it's a whole different story.
  8. I have seen 15 cent covers on most Archie titles from that time frame, and own maybe 6 or 8 individual issues. I have also seen 35 cent covers on giant size books. As far as I know, no one knows if this was a test market thing or just a higher price for Canadian distribution
  9. Nice book! I really like those early Sparklers (thumbs u
