Chicago Boy

It’s a Voldy I don’t think I can

Got it back. Went with the recommendation to slab the insides separately from the back cover. Both ended up with a 0.1 With the insides labeled “DC Archival Copy”

It is.

Let’s bring this thread into 2018 post the lastest Tec 27 coverless sans CF sale and the Action 1 page

Thanks Angelo !!Looks like I’ve got some bedtime reading tonight Even if it was a trimmed order final you’d think you’d still want a shot at it. $100k in 2008 ? Wonder what the going rate was for a unrestored.

Wud love to hear what you heard. Proof or not

Anyone have any updated info on this ? Todd and I tried to do some business on an old Tec key ( not this one :) and he was nice to deal with. On the other side , Eide’s is My favorite comic shop in the USA. What was the word on the street back in 2007 ?? 2018 ?? http://www.ncnewsonline.com/news/local_news/comic-find-stirs-doubts-hard-feelings/article_f7e6e951-40e5-5687-a582-67de3e4d9595.html

So cool ! Thanks !

Beautiful ! Doesn’t look trimmed to me. Anyone ?

Golden age ? See any big dollar books ( even silver )

Always loved that cover. Took me a while to warm up to the writing of the GA Flash but I eventually came around. Artwork on jay Garrick’s face for me is either a hit or miss

Cool. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a Marvel File Copy slabbed. Other publishers besides DC but not Marvel.

Thanks Gary. All trimmed. Seemed it would have been easier to find larger bound holders to to put them in than to deal with all the trimming. Wonder if people differentiate trimming for a situation like this as opposed to trying to restore the books appearance ???

Thanks. Curious if you noticed that the issues were trimmed to fit the volumes they put them in ?

Did DC keep a specific number of file copies on each issue published ? Always bound ?

Boost yes. You had to have it to begin with however. ( iron man , Cap, Wonder Woman ). Supes & Bats had boosts in the 6os and 7os

I will never look at that cover again the same way. #thanksnothanks

Good thread to mention this. AA 16 census has picked up quite a bit in the last 2 years. In fact I saw to unrestored copies WW CHI. One raw.

M o S = good B v S = good WW = great JL = terrible AM = ? ( I predict bad and a box office bomb )

Whoa. Not my bag but cool piece

Downtown Madrid last week

If I remember correctly it was a 5.0 Blue that hammered at around 25k. Just seemed really low to me--granted I don't follow that book closely ......

Ha ! The PPP on this book and the SC 4 on CC seemed extremely disappointing compared to recent years. The SC 4 was around 5k a point I think? Ouch !!!!

Classic Cover, Bats in his first title , and the Joker and the cat make it special--no doubt. Bat 1 is Tec 27 to the layman. I think the Joker is what that book has going for it personally (cover aside, etc) Origin retold doesn't do it for me--just like origin retold in Supes 1 (with th e addition of the ma and pa kent)

Love that book. Book is really picking up in the census too (along with its sister book-AA16)
