  1. random question. Are the Dell Walt Disney's Comics and Stories considered a Four Color book? Thanks
  2. cool. Plan on swinging by. Any dealers bringing Golden Age books?
  3. I had a gut feeling that Voldemort books are less likely to be pressed than CGC so for a good while I was cracking, pressing and submitting to CGC and doing pretty good with this approach on the balance. I upgraded two Blue Beetle #1's through this and netted out mostly neutral with some higher grade Timely books. I think Voldemort recently rolled out pressing services so that may change. Again, gut feeling. I have no data to backup whether books are less likely to be pressed in one holder than another. I reasoned that if you are looking for savings with the Voldemort holder or in a rush, you may not press that copy.
  4. Well this book is finally in hand from cc and it looks pretty darn good for the grade. The foxing holds it back but I like the cream to off-white pages. I'm heading into the HA auction a bit tapped out since I picked up the All Star 3 2.0 from clink yesterday.
  5. got two books in this auction I really liked, big price gap between them though
  6. Two books offered as a pair for one price - please send all proceeds to Brittany's go fund me. (Shipping incld US or International) claimed Note both books I removed from the slab but are still in the sealed CGC mylar. Post the standard take it in thread. Rachel Rising #1 9.6 Signed & Sketch by Terry Moore. The sketches are much more uncommon on the sig series and it's great. The writing and art just doesn't get better in contemporary indie comics. Locke & Key #1 9.6 Dynamic Forces Edition. I think this is the best cover, I just like the simplicity. Simply put one of the best written horror stories you'll find in the genre.
  7. Yea, I became interested in the census on this book a bit back considering the low numbers. So I've made sure that every raw copy I picked up I slabbed and every copy in a Voldemort slab I cracked and slabbed. I even resubmitted the Rockford copy because the prior owner removed it and the damn thing came back .5 lower when re-graded. I have a coverless copy and I stopped there

  9. I talked to the Heritage guys at their booth at last weekends con in SJ about this auction. Super nice guys, I think it was Jerry Stephan and Aaron White. We got to talking about the Marvel Comics #1 1.0 in that auction. I mentioned how much I liked that book and I threw out that I thought it would go north of 40k and they said yea I think that's about right. I also mentioned how it's a real nice entry level copy which in retrospect it's a bit funny to call anything in this price range entry level.
  10. pretty good show and beat my expectations. Disappointed though that CGC listed this Con as a drop-off location on their site and completed the submission and brought the books only to find out they weren't there - no reason, nothing. Just not there. Talked to the guys at Heritage and were also wondering why they weren't there. Voldemort had a huge table so maybe the CGC guys are still at the airport bound and gagged in the bathroom stall. Overall pretty good sampling of 2.0-4.0 golden age books at decent prices. Terry's Comic had a lot of Ginger books and I bought almost all he had on tap.
  11. hey man cool book but you can't list the WW6 on the clink exchange and still have it listed here
  12. right on, do we have some goths lurking on the boards?
