Which 2 have eluded you?

Dynomutt 3, Flintstones 7, also the 2 price variants but I doubt I will pursue those.  It was fun putting these together. 

Submitted Laff -A-Lympics 7 and got a nice 9.6 (W). and also, a Scooby-Doo 3, 9.0.(W) That particular issue remains elusive in good shape. I have upgraded a few others over the past year and I am now missing only 2 issues and an additional 6 needing to be upgraded to 9.4 or better

was the Yogi 1 self submitted?

 

No, bought it on Ebay. Had a guy who was going to sell me another 9.8 years ago but he didn't follow through. I also have an 8.5 but that's well below my minimum goal  that I'm shooting for.

Got my 3 Yogi bears Back from CGC with the following grades,

Yogi Bear 3, 9.4 White,

Yogi Bear 8, 9.0 White, 

Yogi Bear 9, 9.2 White

And  I managed to upgrade a Scooby-Doo 9 to a 9.8 (W) and  Spotlight 4 in 9.6 (W) Happy with the results. Its getting tougher to find upgrades or missing issues.

Found this little nugget recently, a nice upgrade, Still waiting for the other 3 issues of this title i sent in to be graded by CGC. That will complete my run except for possible future upgrades.  It's not very often that high grade certified books come up for sale.

Love the Marvel Published Hanna's

There is an excellent article on them in the Back Issue 59 (Sept 2012).

My Laff-A-Lypics 1, when the first CGC census appeared as I recall it was the highest and 1/1 - alas no longer either.

1st Mumbly, Daisy Mayhem and Captain CAAAAAVEMAAAAAAANNNN!

Nice copy ! Its also the first Marvel appearance of Hong Kong Phooey. 

 I submitted the first full set copies of Spotlight and TV Stars back in the day. There still  isn't a whole lot of them on the census. 

Yes, Good Luck !

Reunited !  

Gem of a copy! Good luck with the other books.
