  1. RIP John Romita Sr. A true legend! I have just one signed book by him but it's one of my favorites in my entire collection
  2. I accept most types of defects in GA. So far I have never bought a book that had brittle (or slightly brittle pages), extensive rodent/bug chew or been trimmed but if it was a rare enough book or some huge key that I wouldn't be able to afford otherwise, I would make an exception. I see some low grade brittle books that are in auction right now that are surprising me with their price! I am fine with restored books as well and do know that some people would never consider buying a restored book. It depends on the level of restoration but a lot of that can be removed. I'd say unless you're trying to buy to flip, buy what makes you happy!
  3. Is Cap regular size here If so, Robert Wadlow is reaching for him...
  4. I'm happy to add this to my collection! Love the Jusko cover!
  5. I've thought of doing the same thing god503 but with my GA Caps. I could clear some serious debt with the 20 I have but I'd likely never get them back unless I change careers or there's a major correction in the comic market. I'm not sure which is more likely But then my #1 goal of collecting every golden age Captain America comic (which, realistically, is already a pipe dream) would come tumbling down for good and I am not sure what would happen to me. I'd be debt free but with no purpose, perhaps just wandering comic shops starring at the back walls like an aimless, goalless wraith But I do wish you the best of luck in realizing the best prices you can for you books!
  6. Thanks and thanks for the info! I will look into alternative glass as the Thor statue is just under six pounds itself!
  7. I recently picked up just my second ever statue and I must say this Bowen Designs Faux Bronze Thor blows me away! I'm definitely going to pick up others from the series. I'm already stressing about how much the glass panel can hold though
  8. I've got some great books up on auction ending Sunday around 6pm est.

  9. Hello! I've been away from the boards for a little bit while involved in some other hobbies of mine but my uncle recently asked me if I would be interested in helping him sell his comic collection. He has more than 500 books, all raw that he has had in storage in his (finished) basement since the late 70's. He is giving me "a few bags worth at a time to see what I can do with them" So here is the first run I've looked over - Avengers #121 & #123-#159. There are two copies of #126 but the second copy is the only book with water damage so I'm just tossing it in with the others for free. I've looked over each book and grades range from VG- to VF. Most would average closer to fine. All interiors are complete and range from cream to white pages. The only key in the run (#144) I would grade conservatively as a 5.0 due to the bend (which is not color breaking and could be pressed out). They were not in boards and bags so some minor spine roll is present in some of them due to the way they were all stored together. Priced out individually I come to $319 but I'll take $300 shipped. For payment I would like paypal but will accept others if that doesn't work for you. Returns are accepted but buyer is responsible for return shipping cost. If you'd like more pictures I'm happy to do so. Thanks for looking! I

  12. Junior #11 17 total copies on census. This is definitely NOT the 2nd highest graded But it is the 2nd lowest graded and a great opportunity to get an entry level copy for a good price... A 7.5 sold for $3,600 in November of last year. My price: SOLD! (bit of scanner glare on back cover)
