  1. Thx to Rocketeer for some spiffy Marvel Bronze and a few not insubstantial freebies!
  2. Not sure if it was the same one, probably was, but I thought about bidding on that Spec Spidey 200. Don't know that its worth anything, but I remember the story fondly.
  3. Mohawk Valley, in '65, any chance there are any Marvels? OO just a DC collector? Know nothing about that pedigree, had always assumed it was another 40s/50s Golden Age one.
  4. Heritage right? think I bid on those.
  5. Another ASM collector has been corrupted by "other" books.
  6. 9 later in the run Ohios. Had the chance to grab some of the earlier ones, but the price/grade just wasn't right.
  7. I like to double fullback some of my nicer books so I buy a size higher bag/board for my larger books, the pre 1975 stuff. The 7 1/4 fit well enough, but not with two boards in there. the 4 mil holders do provide that much more protection, and also allow you to yank the books out of the box a bit easier, without grabbing near the book.
  8. I don't make a lot of cash at my 9 to 5, but the proceeds from selling crack on the side can get one a lot of slabs, no doubt. Crack for Slabs, its practically a UN program.
  9. Grabbed the ASM 192 Winnipeg offa comiclink. Finally have a run of 4 slabs, woot.
  10. ASM 126 9.4 (Q) I tested out ComicSupply's VF/NM - NM/M and got a NM ASM twofiftysomething. DD 25 Ohio and DD 62 from the Blazing One, probably a bit over a week ago. Otherwise my purchases in previous weeks of a half-dozen Northland Sgt Furys, two Green River Sgt Furys and 9 Ohio Tales to Astonish have sapped me for a bit.
  11. Thanks to Blazing Bob for adding another great looking Ohio to the collection (and to Red Hook for letting me know it was going to be available).
  12. I probably won't slab many of my raw books, but the COA and a verifyable track of ownership back to the original owner is what I required before I grabbed any Ohios and I'm guessing its what CGC needs as well. I asked Haspel what info he had so I could attempt to verify the Ohios were what they were represented as. Everything matched up perfectly.
  13. Believe it was a Marvel western of some sort. Not a collector of the western books or I'd have bin'ed it myself. =)
  14. This book is simply stunning in-hand. Unfortunate date placement though.
  15. I had an Ohio disappear from my watch list a few days ago...hmmmmmm
  16. How about pencil dates, cause I can fix you up right quick
  17. Aye, thanks, I got some great Caps out of my sfilosa stalking.
  18. Shocker, not an Ohio! Diamond Run.
  19. Can't remember the specific book, but it was a late Silver ASM. While transfering it out of the bag/board I bought it in years ago and into a brand new bag/board, I placed the book on the bed. Girlfriend's cat promptly jumped up onto the bed, landing on the comic. VF+ ====> VG, just like that.
  20. I've picked up quite a few lately. No premium on Ohios is nice, so I'm able to get nicely graded books with some provenance often a good deal below guide. Hard to pass up since, for me, the pencil adds something rather than detracts. =)
