The story of a promise made during the Korean War
Crowzilla replied to sfcityduck's topic in Golden Age Comic Books
The Promise Phantom Lady #17 and Detective #140 combined sold for a higher price than the Wright Detective #27 (6.5) and Action #1 (3.0) combined when first offered. -

Have you attempted to contact Robert's son? Or are you giving the family privacy in hopes that Heritage will answer? -
Post your Golden Age Adventure/New Adventure/New Comics
Crowzilla replied to RareHighGrade's topic in Golden Age Comic Books
I love Flessel myself, but you are kidding yourself if you don't think the back cover to a Tec 27 is extremely valuable. -

Do they have the same back covers at Action 7 and Detective 27? -
Action 1 Rocket Copy & Tec 27 CGC 4.5
Crowzilla replied to Chicago Boy's topic in Golden Age Comic Books
I remember when the owner of Mastronet auctions was buying comics. He was a nice guy but forgetful (had a pretty Detective #27 that he couldn't remember where it was). Wonder whatever happened to him... -
That's it, just one book - one with an awesome Baker cover. $3200, checks, MOs, paypal, venmo, whatever. 7 day return policy. If you say you'll take it, please take it (had a couple of non-follow throughs last time).

Yes, but they love the Joker. So the Batman #1 page is probably the one that would/could pass the record.
-
Are the single known pages from Batman #1 and Marvel Comics #1 not good enough to even get mentioned anymore? The Batman page even has the Joker card (and Joker) in it, and now that Subby will be joining the MCU...

Heritage's Next Event Auction has started posting books !
Crowzilla replied to Gotham Kid's topic in Golden Age Comic Books
If by public you aren't counting the blue 3.0 that ComicConnect auctioned last month for $1.6 million (which was my basis for the comparison to the Tec27), or the resale of the 8.5 last April, then yes. -

no. The 3.0 and the 8.5 that ComicConnect sold in 2021. -
Heritage's Next Event Auction has started posting books !
Crowzilla replied to Gotham Kid's topic in Golden Age Comic Books
Yep, trying to close the gap with Batman #1 and equal/better than Cap 1 maybe. If you don't count the two high profile copies that sold in the last 12 months, sure. -

Action 1 was Cream, so I assume it was discounted also, right? Plus it had some of the same grader's notes including: Left Bottom Back Cover Chews, Left Center Back Cover Piece Out, Staple Multiple Rusted, Staple Multiple Tear, Top Spine Large Spine Split, and Top Staple Cover Detached. -

Same. After the $1.6 million sale of the 3.0 Action 1, how could a 4.5 Tec 27 not reach that same number? I guess this will at least temporarily silence all the people who constantly claim that Tec27 is closing the gap on Action1 -
2022 GOLDEN AGE COMIC BOOK MARKET REPORT
Crowzilla replied to Mmehdy's topic in Golden Age Comic Books
A Verzyl might, but not John. And let's see what happens when 30 years is up. Pretty sure another John, Teftteller, has the best collection of blues 78s. Many not even known when Hite was alive and collecting. The internet has enabled some amazing discoveries to be found. -
2022 GOLDEN AGE COMIC BOOK MARKET REPORT
Crowzilla replied to Mmehdy's topic in Golden Age Comic Books
How big a collection can Hite still have 30 years after his death? -
You are looking at the wrong census numbers. You need to focus on the 141 restored copies. Most restoration is done to the cover of the books, and what little might be done to a page can easily be pulled off when you are separating pages. Some people keep insisting that low-grade restored Bat 1s are $50K or less, and that is where I think the motivation is to pull them apart and piece them out. Really, a complete restored Bat 1 should be close to 100K now (as long as ok eye appeal and non-brittle pages)

40 years of Edgar Church/Mile High copies
Crowzilla replied to Timely's topic in Golden Age Comic Books
If you remove DC from the mix, there aren't a lot of pre-1940s comics period (mostly Dells). Famous Funnies, Super, some Features, King, etc. of the few hundred total books that qualify they turn up in about the same frequency as any other specific items from an 18,000 book collection. -
Supposed Action Comics #1 Sale of $4.5M
Crowzilla replied to Terry JSA's topic in Golden Age Comic Books
Pretty sure that's not ungraded any longer. -
Supposed Action Comics #1 Sale of $4.5M
Crowzilla replied to Terry JSA's topic in Golden Age Comic Books
Well it did say "For over" $4.5 million, and certainly the Church would hit the over. $15 million, $20 million, whatever, all of those numbers are over $4.5 -
Promise Whiz #2 has the wrong back cover
Crowzilla replied to catman76's topic in Golden Age Comic Books
Maybe that's why it's a sample copy -
Page 28 sold for over $8,000 I said a few months back, that the break-up value was getting too high and that restored copies were the super bargains. realistically, the page by page value is somewhere in the $50-60,000 range if you pull apart the book, possibly more depending on how much work was done to the cover.
