  1. Nice! Are you sure the "Murder at Belle Camille" is by Cole? I've wrestled if it is or isn't. I'm also curious if the other issues of Wit and Wisdom are by Cole. Well...presumably there are other issues as that is #4. Has anyone seen issues 1-3. Is there a 5+?
  2. I'm good on the Suspense #4 (i've personally seen more of those than the #3 for some reason). Suspense Comics was one of the first GA runs I finished years ago (my #3 is a rag though) I picked up the Four Favorites #13 from Terry's Comics a few years ago (Cole's first comic cover, yes?) Thanks for the tip on Terrific #3 - I think I missed that as an L.B. Cole cover. I'll have to hunt for the list on the toughest books you mentioned. Cheers
  3. Anyone have a Taffy #2? That seems to be one of the more rare L.B. Cole covers, yes? What do you guys seem to think are other really rare covers?
  4. Well.... I'm not sure it was a great deal as it's only 8.5" x 11" and not like this that's 16" x 22" (which I won in the Berk auction):
  5. Yeah, I picked both up from Heritage in last few months. Too lazy to trim the Heritage text off the bottom.
  6. I have a few extra sets of Photo-Journals - All NEW, Unread and still in original Shrink Wrap! Prices below: Golden Age Set (Vol 1 & 2): $115 Marvel Set (Vol 3 & 4): $50 All four volumes: $160 All books are new and unread. There might be some minor bumps and wear. The dust jackets on the Marvel sets have some wrinkling from where the clear plastic coating is delaminating though. However, I will send the best volumes I have! Full refund within 14 days after delivery if you're not satisfied. S/H in the lower 48 States: $9 for the first volume and $4 each additional one PayPal, Check, M.O. and Credit Cards O.K. Ships from Colorado via FedEx Ground so, no P.O. Boxes please. Thanks! - Tim C.
  7. I do! Actually here's how I bag and board my comics: I put the comic in a Mylite and tape it closed, then use two boards, and put all that in a polypropylene bag or, for my more expensive books, a Mylar sleeve. BTW, those old Abar bags I've been using don't seem to yellow or turn green and they also don't stick to each other like some other bags do. This is why I'm keen on finding a replacement.
  8. In my experience, those "experienced" bags can turn a slight shade of yellow or, worse, green with age.
  9. How do these compare to the Abar bags? http://www.bagsunlimited.com/product/5506/bgolden-ageb-comic-sleevebr-7-78-x-10-38br-2-mil-polyethylene-1-12-flap-brfits-pre-1950-comics
  10. Gah! No Abar bags in 25 years!!! Man, you're making me feel OLD!!!
  11. Hi All, I hope this is the right place for this: I've finally run out of Golden Age bags and need to buy some more in quantity (10k+). I used to buy my bags from American Plas-Tech Distribution out of Concord CA. Near as I can tell, they're not around anymore. The bags I REALLY like are called "Abar" bags: Golden Age comic Size 7 5/8" x 10 1/4" plus 2" flap Polypropylene 60 microns thick Are these still being made? If so, where can I buy them in bulk at wholesale? If not, what are people using instead? Thanks!!
  12. Since it's getting close to the Holidays, here's a bump! These really are great gifts!! PM for further details. Thanks!!
