Record Magazine Prices - Throw out your Overstreet Guide!
Randall Dowling replied to bounty_coder's topic in Comic Magazines
That's a strong price for that book. -
Yes, Real War is the other one. I don't think there's another, just those 2. @lbcolefan, have you seen any others?
-
That seems like the perfect solution. Heck, I'd sell the Hulk 181 as well and get the best copy of FF 5 possible. Hulk 181 is as common as it gets, in pretty much any grade. But a nice FF 5, that's very desirable.

Also, good to see you have your windows in. We have a project that's just breaking ground and the windows are now projected to be 39 weeks for delivery!

That's pretty big stuff. We've been using a lot of Italian porcelain tile lately because it presents well, is rectified (so you can do pencil thin grout lines), comes in large formats and is relatively inexpensive. I love the large format tile but it can be a little susceptible to movement, particularly if you have to notch it around a corner or something. I usually try to match the grout to the tile as close as possible to further minimize it.

When the gyp. bd. goes up, you're about half way there.

@Flex Mentallo @lbcolefan I think the most I've paid is in the $200-250 range as well. And that was for one of the more classic covers. About a year ago, there was someone listing a whole bunch of the big titles (Man's Story, New Man, Men Today, etc.) and they got some pretty good money per issue (as in $400-$700), particularly the issues from the 70s which had really small print runs (as I understand it). Here's what I picked up at Windy City a month ago. As I've mentioned before, I really like Adventure because it's style evolution and it's interiors. And True Adventures has some nice covers of women being nurturing to men This is one of the very uncommon science-fiction covers of the genre And this is a great cover by Vic Prezio with a strong Nazi theme Last, who doesn't love the immortal George Gross? This is a tough book for the run.

Hi Denny, I think I know the answer but would rather you get it directly from CGC to make sure it's right. I would post this question in this forum and they'll get you an accurate answer. https://boards.cgccomics.com/forum/23-ask-cgc/ Best of luck with your books.

Very nice, thanks, DZ! Also, I like your avatar very much, he was one of the greats. I met his son last year and he's an impressive young man.

Press Before Grading
Randall Dowling replied to mario6241's topic in Newbie Comic Collecting Questions
I'd hate to see it done the other way. -
Yeah, this is a bummer. It seems like we're losing these guys on a regular basis now. Ken was a great talent with his own signature style that he worked hard to find. My thoughts and condolences go out to his friends and family tonight.

Is anyone here buying into monoprints
Randall Dowling replied to Panelfan1's topic in Original Comic Art
I know photographers that would argue that with you but I'm not here for that. For the average person, I think you're correct. -

Randall Dowling replied to Panelfan1's topic in Original Comic Art
I wouldn't collect these myself, but they're really no different than a photographer selling prints of their work. And vintage photos do have collectible value (yes, I have purchased some of those). I would think that the same rules would apply. -
Welcome CGC to the world of pulps" CGC will be grading them.
Randall Dowling replied to Mmehdy's topic in Pulp Magazines
I'm waiting for fractional ownership of pulps to show up as a thing. Then I'll make my move. -
Nice pickup! One of my favorites. I picked up a few down in Chicago that I have to scan and post this weekend.

Spanish Artists- Show -em off!
Randall Dowling replied to Randall Dowling's topic in Comic Magazines
Beautiful piece, Steve! Congratulations on the pickup, that's a real gem!! -
This week in your Magazine collection.
Randall Dowling replied to batmiesta's topic in Comic Magazines
Really cool pickups, sir! I've always liked this alternate cover for X-men 56 but I think they made the right choice with the printed one. Hope you're not getting hit too hard and feeling reasonably okay.
