    A Richie Rich comic sold for $108,000 last year — more will soon be auctioned off

    Philip Cole’s collection of classic Richie Rich comic books is being auctioned off next month. He is shown here holding his copy of Richie Rich No. 1.

     

    Collectors of comic books have long obsessed about Superman, Spider-Man and the broader array of superheroes. And that has led to surging prices for some titles, including sales that have topped $3 million for the rarest ones. 

    But now some collectors are turning their attention to an entirely different type of comic-book character and asking the question: Is it possible to get rich off Richie Rich?

    Yes, Richie Rich, the character otherwise known as “the poor little rich boy” and the namesake behind a line of kiddie-oriented comic books that were popular in the ‘60s and ‘70s.

    Thanks for sharing! Richie Rich #1 and the two Harvey Hits featuring Richie Rich were also on my want list when I picked up the Little Dot #1 posted above. Maybe it's time to start looking again hm

    I've submitted a few times for signature series, but this is my first time for grading. CGC had a booth at a recent convention in Hawai'i, so I finally decided to get some of my WWII books graded as all my questions and concerns could be answered in-person. I've had all but two of these books in my collection for over 30 years.

    Very surprised at the incredibly quick turnaround! Just 15 days from dropping it off at the convention to receiving the books back.

    Was hoping for slightly higher grades for the All Winners and USA since those are my favorites, but did get higher than expected grades on a few others. Overall, very happy with the results and the CGC staff at the booth were very helpful. Mahalo to all! Will certainly be submitting more books.
