This is one I am so excited to see auctioned off i can hardly contain myself haha!! GPA has one singular recorded sale EVER and it was the Berk copy back in 2017. Still only 5 copies on the census. I owned and sold the 0.5 to a boardie and own the 2.0. I have seen the Mile High copy obviously and have WONDERED what the other 2 copies presented like for years and this copy is no slouch! Any predictions? The near perfect Berk/Mile High 9.0 brought in $7500 which i thought was a great 7 or so years ago. This will be a good barometer to see where some of these rarities stand. Amazing auction for sure

@Primetime looking like an absolute stud as usual!! Enjoyed your take on Tec 31 and couldn’t agree more my friend!! 🏈💪

that was a fantastic look into the earlier collecting days!! @Mmehdy I really appreciate your passion, confidence, and foresight into what the hobby could and would eventually become!! well done!!

I am still very happy i was able to upgrade this other Fox cover with Dictator on it. Also a firing squad bondage cover as noted by heritage. Also presents very nicely for the grade with wonderful OW-White PQ and the colors are awesome:) tough book with still only 18 on the census

@sagii sorry you missed it brother it’s one of the books i had a commission done several years ago it’s such a shockingly strange and rare book. I think the fact that it presents so nicely for a 1.0 is part of the reason it went so high too i mean honestly if you removed the number up in the top left that could easily be mistaken for a higher technical grade. Still only 13 copies on the cgc census which is very tough. I too remember having an opportunity for a gorgeous privately sold 5.0 and at quite a bit less than what this hammered for. oh what could have been haha!! Rare gold is alive and thriving at least for now even in the lower grades.

this is a tough but classic one that comes to mind

sorry don’t have a copy but here is a commission

Incredibly thread idea @Professor K !! Well played good sir!!!

I was happy to add the Berk copy of this relatively tough (13 blue labels) last issue of the Eagle. Red Cross ambulance WWII cover. It’s a fun subset hahaha!!

1st pickup of the new year might as well be a rare Centaur that I never imagined would have the opportunity to buy!!

SOLD!!

Here we have a Tough book only 15 blue labels. 18 total on the census. I just slightly upgraded to a 1.5. Relevant GPA I will include a pic to save you all some time. Probably won’t find a complete copy for cheaper as I just paid $3300 for my 1.5 Price here is $1500 shipped

Hey folks gonna post a tough little GA book for sale. Usual rules apply 1st I’ll take it trumps any PM negotiations. shipping is USPS priority in a box and packed securely also it’s included in price. No returns on slabbed books BUT i am easy to work with if there is a major issue No problem children. I have been on the boards for over a decade and never had a single issue buying or selling. Threat krapping is always encouraged i dont mind a free bump hehe!! Lastly thanks for looking!!

Oh no this is a devastating loss. So sorry to hear of this news. Sending Blessings to his family and all the friends he made not just here on the boards but it sounds like in the community as well. It was always a joy to read Bird’s posts he was compassionate about the hobby and made this place more enjoyable and interesting for us all. God Bless

Thanks Gents!!

This just in…presents great for the grade imo

1st app of Pennywise 🤡😳 full disclosure that is terrifying 🤣

NUFF SAID…

A few others from the collection. BB is from 1942. Cant think of many Cap comics with the ol’ wheel haha. Some crazy devices but not sure about the wheel off the top of my head.
