Copy #4, courtesy of an assorted lot from @ft88's recent sale.  It wasn't the reason I grabbed the lot, but the fact I have no immediate intentions of unloading any of my copies suggests that I may be hoarding this issue:

Nice one!

Here's the other Sniffles Four Color

Sunday night auction. Yikes.

As someone who hunted for years and finally snagged a copy, I can attest to how tough it is, but this is a shocker.

Appreciate my copy even more now

I doubt anyone here bid that high on the Tec 1. The Detective's 3 and 4 I think went low. #4 6.0 A-2 was a great price and I wished I'd have clicked at least 2 or 3 more times on it. 

One highly intelligent person gave issue 3  6.0 A-3 the one and only bid it needed to bring home. After Detective 4 bidding on the rest of the Detectives seemed to really picked up.

Quite a few of the early More Funs and New Comics sold kind of low also. Low grade, restored, but scarce books.

I wasn't going to post this at least until I got it but here it is. Hooray for me. 

 

Congrats, super pick up! 👏

I thought some of the strongest prices were on beater, restored, and conserved copies. Lots of shallow water demand for these books. Like this one I thought got a great price:

It was, Congratulations to winner if anyone here 🎊 👏 

These were strong as well

I picked up this one. It really wasn't on my radar screen prior to this auction, but I like the cover.

 

Love it!

I was happy to add the Berk copy of this relatively tough (13 blue labels) last issue of the Eagle. Red Cross ambulance WWII cover. It’s a fun subset hahaha!! 

Congratulations Gino! Amazing pick up.

Who here has the nuts to put in a $3.6M bid? It'll get outbid for sure, but typing it in and hitting 'submit' would be kind of exciting.

You almost had me, but I was very good at these 'trick' questions from school.

No apologies necessary.  Whether the book sells or not, right now this is the sales thread of the year.
