Yes, would like to know how to I.D. a variant #8.
Sandman 8a - Has a "Janette Khan publishorial" opening on the inside cover.
Sandman 8b - Has a "Karen Berger Editorial" opening on the inside cover. (Rumoured that roughly < 1k copies ever printed)

RISE!!!
With the news of the prestige Sandman show hitting Netflix, it is high time to bring this thread back.
And wow, prices of these books have certainly immediately skyrocketed since the news dropped.
'Bout damn time prices of this book better reflected its top of the line quality.
Everybody still have their copies, right ?
-J.
Yes I do!
I also managed to pick up another couple of non graded copies as well one 9.0 and one at least a 9.6
-
Finally got mine
Also a delayed... Nice book! To you as well!
-
Coming atcha with nothing but praise man!
Nice book!
-
I believe it is, I hounded the original owner for over a year as I'd bought a lower grade from him originally.
Luckily for me, he required some cash and I was fortunate enough to still be pestering him at the time.
Stoked to own this, I believe you have an excellent collection of Sandman stuff mschmidt and by no means will I ever get close (not if the wife has anything to say about it anyhow...)
-
So.....
I've not been on the groups long, nor have I posted all that frequently and I'm certainly not an expert but I am proud to finally put this up here.
One for the boardies!
I now have no money....
Maybe I should've bought a scanner first?!
-
Very Nice! Congrats!
-
Methinks they'll not crack it to find out!
Now that 9.2 may get some notice. Still no 9.8 Editorial Variants on the board tho, wonder if they'll ever show up
-
Looks like the seller updated the listing :thumbsup:
Methinks the seller doth read this thread!
-
Looks like they have the incorrect census information on it
"CGC census 3/15: 89 in 9.8, none higher."
May affect sale price
-
It's baaacckk! My recent high grade raw Sandman #8 Karen Berger from the CGC factory!
I took a gamble and it paid off big-time. I couldn't be more pleased with the results! (thumbs u
This copy will supplement my Sandman #1 Savannah pedigree book nicely!
[/img]
Boom! Nice copies!
-
It would be interesting to see if the 9.8 came up, I'm certain a few boardies will have a punt at it. (I know I would!)
May be off topic (and a little random interlude to the awesome posts of collections) so apologies!
If you had to put a backing song to one of the endless (ie, if they did in the movie) who would be the artist and what would the song be...
Note: I'm not sure if Tori Amos is allowed ;-)
I'm thinking something like
Delirium = They Might Be Giants - Birdhouse in your soul
Death = Blue Oyster Cult - Don't Fear the reaper
Dream = The Cranberries - Dreams
Maybe A song for Death and Dream = Weezer - Only in Dreams
But maybe it should be kept to just Dream and Death?
Thoughts?!
Dream has to be "In Dreams" by Roy Orbison. It's a beautiful, haunting song and the creepy factor is amped up because of the Blue Velvet tie-in.
I have some songs for ya'll, although not too eerie: (thumbs u
'Dream Lover' - Bobby Darin
'Mr. Sandman' - Chordettes
'Don't Wake Me, I'm Dreamin' - Christopher Williams
'All I Have to do Is Dream' - Everly Brothers
'Sweet Dreams' (Are Made of This) - Eurythmics
'Dreamin' - Vanessa Williams
'Enter Sandman' - Metallica
What about "Dreaming of You" by Selena? And "Dream a Little Dream of Me" by Cass Elliot?
-J.
I was gonna add the Selena song, but wanted others to chime in. (thumbs u The ones I put were off the top of my head.
I luvs my music bro!
The songs don't just have to contain references to 'Dreams' ;-)
-
What you talkin' about Willis?
-J.
I was watching Iron Man and thought how well AC/DC worked as backing music to the movie and then thought what would the backing tracks to The Endless be?
There may or may not have been an amount of Guiness involved

Hopefully it went to someone on the board, regardless of price!
And it if did they should definitely post it up in here!

Ok,
Apologies for the quality (I've not scanner!) but lets get this Topic back on appreciation mode!

Back Cover
I may post this up in PGM section but what are peoples thoughts?

Picked up a copy for $45 today - it was simply marked as a VF/NM #8 with no mention of the error. Needless to say, I didn't haggle on the price.
*faints*

Heres some quick links I've found for 'documentation'
This was J's I believe
Here's one,
http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=111561093764&alt=web
And another (this was the low grade J mentioned)
http://cr.azdevserver.com/product/product?source_id=181569873824&source=1
Some evidence is still out there, you just need to be searching as long (or longer) than I have!
I personally should have contacted mschmidt to see if he (or she) would part with one of their 6 raws
Luckily for me I found a guy in the UK who had the one I bought spare as he'd 'upgraded'
The first one is a sale from 2005. I can't speak for Jay, but that *might* be out of the running for "recent."
The other two reference the sales already mentioned.
I dunno....four sales in five months...plus only 2 slabs in over a year...
Doesn't *seem* like a obvious uptick in heat and price to me....
PS. I've been looking for this book since 1991. You too?
91?! Holy , only sine 2012 (when I finally started making the right amount of money!) I'll go get back in the box then....
I would say you could have mine just for your wait, but I've only just got it and it sooo pretty!
-
I certainly am enjoying the book, it was one of the last ones I required for completing my collection!!
I find its always difficult to find key books in the UK but have found peoples opinions on the board to be interesting and varied, I'm glad this topic was started and am excited to see where it leads!
