  2. So, that was you who one the Target #5. Terrific deal ...Jerry put a $250 estimate on it but Guide = $1100! GE
  3. nice book (did cgc omit the PQ?)...I have always liked that copy...it reminds me of another book, but I can't put my finger on it! gator Rick...Let me take a guess: Thrilling #59? BTW, Congrats ArAich! GE
  4. Great books everyone! Here's a new addition to my collection... ...as a bonus, I've added a pic of the S&K splash page! GE
  5. Speaking of eBay impulse buys and Hitler covers...I just won this from Motor City Comics: GE

  8. 143ksk, Fantastic Marvel Mystery #11 ...I'll bet it's the CGC 5.5 copy. I owned it (and slabbed it) a while back... Dino
  9. Congrats Mike!!! Who says you can't get any ACTION in Albany? GE
  10. Great purchase, Richard! Speaking of Hangman, while everyone was focused on the Sept Heritage Auctions, I quietly sneaked over to Mastro Auctions and picked up this classic, uber-cool Hangman #2! Pssst...Highest Graded Copy! Dino
  11. Thanks for noticing! It is the Central Valley copy, and at present the book closest to my heart. Saw it at San Diego last year and was able to work out a very unreasonable price on it. But sometimes you just bite your lip and pay! BTW...the other really cool book is the Silver Streak #1. It is the Pay Copy. Got it at the first Philly Wizard show from a guy walking around the room selling Golden Age. He was at my table buying a World's Finest #3 and said "I can't believe I am buying something. I actually came here to sell!" One thing led to another...... ...Guys, I think that "filler" Marvel Mystery #9 CGC 6.5 is not bad either! Dino
  12. Awesome book, Surfer! I wish all my 6.0 books looked that nice... Dino
  13. Jive, I couldn't agree more, bro! Another great Timely Schomburg cover just picked up on Comiclink... As a sequel to his famous "burnt arm" image from HT#12, Schomburg here presents "burnt hair" GE
  14. Now, we rejoin our regularly scheduled program...Timelys!!! Kid Komics #2 VF Unrestored (not as nice as MrBedrock's, but I'll take it!) GE
  15. Nice pick-up rjpb! #22 (actually #1) is scarce and only 8 in cencus. According to OPG, Crime Does Not Pay is the first crime title....so, is this the first crime comic? Curious... GE
  16. Congrats on a phenomenoal book! It's a real treat to see a comic as rare and high grade as yours. Thanks for sharing! GE
  17. Awesome Submariner page - Thanks, it has popped up a few times in that last couple of years, but now it is gone for good! I was really happy when I was able to buy it since I missed it in Heritage's auction the 1st go around and got home late from work and missed it in the CLINK auction. Always glad to help....and Happy Birthday!! Enjoy the wonderful Subby splash page! Dino
  18. Awesome book, Rick! Glad to see the CEO gets to enjoys a few wonderful "toys" of his own... GE

  24. Now, that is cool! Never had one. Add that to the list! Awesome cover... and love the caption: "The boy with the most comic books in America...he reads 'em, breathes 'em and sleeps 'em!" Seems like a fun thing to do in Hell! C-L-A-S-S-I-C! GE
